Possibly by Victor Courtray
France 1940s
These are a set of six French 1940s oak and rush chairs, crafted in the style of Charles Dudouyt and Victor Courtray. The chairs feature sturdy oak frames with a rich, dark finish that highlights the natural grain of the wood. The seats and backs are made of woven rush, arranged in a checkerboard pattern that adds texture and visual interest.
The backs of the chairs are slightly reclined, providing a comfortable seating posture, while the woven rush offers both durability and classic rustic charm. A distinctive feature of these chairs is their bobbin-turned legs, which showcase a series of rounded, spool-like details that reflect the craftsmanship typical of the period. These intricately turned legs are connected by stretchers, enhancing the stability and durability of the chairs.
The overall design blends functionality with understated elegance, making these chairs a versatile addition to various interior styles, from traditional to rustic or even modern spaces seeking a touch of vintage flair. The combination of oak and rush materials, along with the handcrafted bobbin-turned details, embodies the quality and aesthetic sensibilities of mid-20th-century French furniture design.
