A stunning late 19th century / early 20th century Sgabello type folk art chair in hand carved wood with wonderful kelim upholstered seat. Probably Alpine of origin.
Marvelous and fascinating carvings on the backrest - showing a grotesque figure with open mouth and two faces looking left and right. Very intriguing.
Truly a very special chair. One of the best examples we’ve seen.
Comes in a good and highly original condition.
Dimensions: W. 44 x D. 49 x H. 99 cm (Seat height 49 cm)
