An Art Deco hall chair in walnut crafted Italy around the 1930s. This is a striking example of the movement’s blend of elegance and functionality.

Designed with both form and practicality in mind, this chair would have served as a statement piece in a hallway, embodying the Italian interpretation of the Art Deco style with its refined craftsmanship and subtle flair.
