About this work

Chair of jatih wood with a seat of woven rattan. The S-shaped diagonal front legs and the seat rails are decorated with stretched S-shaped moldings and foliage. The rearward-sloping angular rear legs transition into the stretched S-shaped profiled back posts. The curved top rail shows in the center a carved palmette. The openwork center panel has stretched S-shaped sides, turned at the top and decorated with rosettes, which there enclose an openwork palmette form.
