Set of Six Alpine Fir Board-Back Chairs with Heart Cutouts

This set of six Alpine board-back chairs, hand-carved in solid fir with heart-pierced crests and warm honeyed tones, originates from a mountain chalet restaurant in the 1980s. Each features a slightly saddled plank seat on round, splayed legs without stretchers, a form rooted in traditional _stabelle_ or board-chair design of the Austrian Tyrol and Bavaria. The chairs display a mellow patina with age-softened edges, small nicks, and surface wear consistent with use, giving them a timeworn authenticity. Sturdy and practical, they were built to withstand daily use, embodying the rustic craftsmanship and enduring charm of Alpine folk furniture.

Perfect for introducing Alpine warmth to both rustic and contemporary interiors, these sturdy fir chairs bring a touch of mountain charm to kitchens, dining areas, or chalet-style retreats. Their sculptural silhouettes and heart-pierced backs add a welcoming, handcrafted character that complements natural materials like stone, linen, and aged wood. Around a farmhouse table, they create a relaxed, convivial atmosphere, while a single chair can serve as a decorative accent in a hallway, bedroom, or beside a fireplace. Their solid construction and honest simplicity make them as practical as they are evocative, blending seamlessly into spaces that value authenticity and comfort.
