Sylvie Favorite

We found this gloriously eccentric chair in Lyon - a 19th-century piece in amazing condition, with details that stop you mid-step. Brutalist in silhouette, baroque in spirit, it features carved faces, a pierced heart, and twisted legs that feel more sculpture than seat. Covered in a deep, gleaming varnish, it’s a maximalist’s dream. Sylvie styles it on its own, where it doesn’t have to compete. Two available sold separately.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

  • Notes from Sylvie:

    We have two almost identical chairs, the backs and legs wiggle slightly, and there are cracks in the beautiful antique wood. As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it.

    All items are final sale.
