Carved Walnut | Tall, Openwork Backs
Intricately carved seats and openwork backs give these German Black Forest armchairs their distinctive character. The tall, narrow silhouettes draw the eye upward, while the openings in the backs let the wall color show through and bring a sense of lightness to the carved walnut.
Set them on either side of an entry console or pair them against a pale wall where the carving can stand out. Their narrow proportions make them especially appealing in a hallway or landing that could use a strong architectural detail.

Period: 18th Century, as listed
Origin: Germany
Material: Carved walnut
