These Provençal corner chairs date from 1920 in the rustic country style, originating from France. Made from walnut timber in a warm brown shade with a visible grain, the chairs feature hand-woven natural rush seats, square corner frames, and turned bobbin stretchers between the legs. The construction incorporates raised armrests fitted with turned rails and vertical turned spindles along the upper back. Measuring 77 cm in height, 46 cm in width, 46 cm in depth, with a seat height of 41 cm, these wooden chairs suit practical deployment in a living room, hallway, or bedroom corner as functional seating. The rustic farmhouse aesthetic integrates easily into traditional and transitional interior schemes, providing compact seating solutions for tight spaces.

Corner chairs, originally developed in the eighteenth century, were designed with a square layout rotated forty-five degrees to fit neatly into room corners, maximising space and accommodating wide garments comfortably.

These chairs feature solid timber frames such as oak, ash, or fruitwood, combined with hand-woven natural rush or cattail seating supported by turned wood joinery.

Authentic examples exhibit hand-turned spindles, natural variation in hand-woven seat fibers, pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, and uniform surface patination around high-wear areas.

A pair of corner chairs can be positioned symmetrically beside a fireplace, arranged within quiet reading nooks, or placed in a hallway to define architectural corners.

Timber surfaces should be dusted with a soft cloth and conditioned with natural beeswax, while natural rush seats benefit from occasional gentle cleaning and controlled humidity levels.
