This stunning pair of made to order vintage cinema seats finished in silky soft Tatie Lou 'Boucle' velvet will bring a splash of vintage style to your home. The retro style of the fabric looks so cool paired with the pink painted cast iron fittings - you won't find anything like this anywhere else!
Ideal as a stunning space saving alternative to a sofa, seating in a hallway or to furnish a home cinema. The curved back and deep sprung seats add comfort to the beautiful 1930’s Art Deco style. These seats were designed to be sat in for long periods.
The original chairs are very old, and when we get them, they are not suitable for use, so we really do bring them back to life. Please expect 'character' - there will be dings in the wood and metal and they do not always sit perfectly straight. We are fussy though, so we work hard to make them as perfect as can be, The fabulous joy of vintage!
The chairs are fixed to a light grey painted board, which means they are free standing and stable. But you can choose to remove it and to screw them directly into the floor instead.
These particular chairs are sold but shown as an example and can be recreated for you. The specific style of the chair may vary slightly depending on which batch we have available at the time of ordering but they will be very similar. The main difference is usually the the shape and design of the cast iron legs and backets. You will notice if you look closely at some of the other photos on the website. As we would recreate these for you, we can stain or paint the board in any colour to suit your flooring or decor. as well as add numbers underneath the seats.
Being vintage, measurements do vary a little from seat to seat, so sizes are approximate:
Height 80cm
Width 120cm
Depth Seat Up 50cm
Depth Seat Down 60cm
Materials
Velvet: This luxurious velvet by Tatie Lou has a very short pile but is super soft feel, it truly is gorgeous. It is durable too though with a very high rub rating, which means it should stay looking gorgeous for many years to come. We love to use soft velvets on our cinema seats as we feel it suits their style and reflects their past.
Wood: The wooden top rail, shaped arm rests, curved seat backs and seat bases are all stripped back and refinished with a hard wax oil. There will be marks in the wood due to their age, but this adds to their unique character.
Metal: Cast iron legs and fittings have been cleaned and repainted, but due to their age there will be dents and marks, or character as we like to call it.
Fillings: The chairs have deep sprung seats and we replace all the fillings with natural materials.
