This is a set of vintage dining chairs from the 1940s, re-imagined in charcoal gray leather seats and re-painted in their original black lacquer color with gold character preserved on the chair back. The chairs feature design details like small carved Chinese symbols near the bottom of the legs. These chairs have a lovely, market-tempting appeal even though they are from mid century.

Side chair 3 1/2 inches tall, 18 1/2 inches wide, 17 5/8 inches deep
