A Colombo Sanguineti pair of beech "Spade" armchairs, Chiavari, Italy, 1950s

About the Item

An elegant set of armchairs, crafted by Colombo Sanguineti in Italy during the 1950s, exemplifies the exceptional artistry of the Chiavari cabinetmaker's artisanal skills. Renowned as the "Spade" model, these chairs showcase carved embellishments on the legs and backrest, infusing a sense of refinement into their overall aesthetic. Expertly fashioned from beech wood, the chair's frame has undergone a meticulous refinishing process, employing the French polish technique to achieve a striking, lustrous dark walnut finish. The Spade armchairs boast newly woven straw seats that remain impeccably preserved, indicative of the attentive care and maintenance bestowed upon this set. The fusion of elaborate engravings, elegant framework, and pristine woven seats seamlessly combine to create a visually captivating and functional furniture ensemble. Graceful in its curves and tasteful in its details, this set of armchairs by Colombo Sanguineti encapsulates the sophistication and craftsmanship synonymous with the Chiavari chairs tradition.
