Dimensions: 39.75 inches High x 17.75 inches wide x 21.25 inches deep. Seat height 19.5 inches A refined and architecturally composed set of six French Art Deco dining chairs attributed to Jules Leleu, exemplifying the understated elegance and disciplined craftsmanship associated with one of the most important French designers of the 20th century. These chairs are defined by their distinctive “mustache” shaped crest rails, a subtle yet expressive design element that introduces a sense of movement to an otherwise restrained silhouette. The backs are gently curved, offering both visual softness and ergonomic support, while maintaining the clean, linear sensibility characteristic of the Art Deco period. Constructed in walnut, the frames display a warm, medium-toned patina with visible grain that adds depth without overpowering the form. The legs are tapered and well-proportioned, reinforcing the verticality and balance of the design. The overall construction reflects a workshop attentive to proportion, symmetry, and durability—qualities closely associated with Leleu’s body of work. The chairs retain their original upholstery, featuring a soft, vertically striped textile in muted tones. The fabric complements the structure nicely, adding a layer of period authenticity and cohesion to the set. As expected with original upholstery, there is visible wear including areas of staining, as shown in the photographs. This presents an opportunity for reupholstery if desired, though many collectors appreciate the presence of original material as part of the chairs’ history. What makes this set particularly compelling is its ability to sit comfortably across a range of interiors. While firmly rooted in the French Art Deco tradition, the clean lines and restrained ornamentation allow these chairs to integrate seamlessly into both classic and contemporary environments. A cohesive and elegant set, well-suited for a formal dining setting or as accent seating in a curated interior. The pair is in good antique/vintage condition with the exception of some light surface scratches, Minor finish loss and normal age related wear including staining to the upholstery. As to be expected with items of age and use. Dimensions: 39.75 inches High x 17.75 inches wide x 21.25 inches deep.
