Antique Arras Iron Slatted Garden Chair w/ Lion Paw Feet - 28¾"

A fine example of 19th-century French garden design, this iron chair from the famed Arras workshops combines understated elegance with robust construction. Its slatted construction curves into a gently inclined backrest, offering both visual lightness and structural integrity. The chair stands on tapered legs that terminate in cast iron lion paw feet, an earlier design detail that predates the more commonly found hoofed feet. Cross stretchers provide additional strength and visual structure, reinforcing the piece’s overall stability.

The surface bears a beautifully distressed patina of original paint layered with time-softened rust accents, evoking decades of use and exposure to the elements.

Solid, stable, and richly textured, this chair makes a sculptural and functional addition to a terrace, conservatory, or garden setting, perfect alone or paired with matching pieces for an evocative ensemble.
