Crafted in dark-stained beech, they feature classic hoop backs and round dished seats pressed with a scallop shell motif. The legs splay gently and are joined by shaped supports. The surfaces show a warm, timeworn patina, with light scuffs and minor wear consistent with café use, as well as natural variations in the wood tones. Faint remnants of original Fischel labels remain. All chairs are in good condition, solid and stable. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Six chairs follow the same model, while one presents a closely related variation with a slightly different shell motif to the seat..\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFischel was founded in 1871 in Bohemia, and quickly became one of the leading manufacturers of bentwood furniture in Europe.
