Vintage Art Deco Revival Chrome and Upholstered Accent Armchair 1970-1980

This. A chair like this was how I fell in love with Art Deco. Not knowing that it was actually Art Deco Revival. Did you know that Art Deco was not even a design or era term until Art Deco Revival came along? The name Art Deco is derived from The International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrials Arts (i.e. exposition internationale des arts decoratifs et industriels modernes) World’s Fair held in Paris from April to October 1925. It was held to highlight the new style moderne of architecture, interior decoration, furniture, glass, jewelry, and other decorative arts in Europe and throughout the world. The term Art Deco came much later but was coined from the 1925 title of the Expo. Art Deco Revival sprang up in the 1970s from the newfound love of this early 20^th century avant-garde design. This chair is the epitome of that. It is comprised of a curvaceous chromed metal rectangular tube frame and an upholstered seat and back with a fan-shaped Art Deco styled fabric in cream, blush, and bluish-gray. It is simply stunning. And will be gorgeous whether its used in your entry, your study, your bedroom, or living room. You must make it yours!
