A pair of 19th-century pine folk art chairs from Transylvania, with distinctive hand-carved backs and a rich, dark patina.

The tall, shaped backrests feature scalloped outlines and pierced quatrefoil motifs, with smaller arched cut-outs at the base. Each chair has a solid plank seat with rounded edges, supported on four splayed, faceted stick legs. The simple construction and individual variations in the carving reflect the regional tradition of rural furniture making.

Often referred to as peasant chairs or spinning stools, these traditional chairs retain the marks of hand workmanship and generations of use, with subtle differences between the two adding to their character.
