About this work
Beechwood chair with a vase-shaped back consisting of two symmetrically placed carved planks, with a circular, keyhole, and diamond-shaped opening in the center. The wooden trapezoidal seat is wavy at the front. The legs are straight on the outer sides, wavy on the inner sides, and flare outwards towards each other on the sides. They are connected by stretchers front and back; this connection is visible at the legs with a tenon.
