Produced circa the 1960s, the chairs balance the richness of cerejeira hardwood with the transparency of caning, creating a striking presence without visual heaviness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStanding 42.1 inches tall, each chair features an elongated backrest framed by slender wooden uprights. The extended proportions give the design its distinctive character: poised, narrow, and expressive from both front and rear. Gently arched crest rails soften the strong vertical lines, while straight legs and low connecting stretchers establish a restrained, orderly base. The shaped seat frames introduce a subtle contour, completing a composition in which each detail serves the overall proportion.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cerejeira displays warm honey and reddish-brown tones, enriched by darker grain that moves across the rails and uprights. Professionally restored and refinished, the wood retains its individual figuring beneath a soft luster. Its depth of color provides a beautiful contrast to the pale natural cane, allowing the structure and woven surfaces to remain equally legible.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoth seats and backrests have been newly caned by our master caning specialist in Rio de Janeiro, using traditional methods that respect the original design. The precise open weave introduces a delicate pattern of light and shadow across the tall backs, while the caned seats offer a lightly yielding, breathable surface. This material continuity gives the chairs a cohesive appearance from every angle and emphasizes the craftsmanship within their spare wooden frames.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasuring 18.1 inches wide and 22 inches deep, with a seat height of approximately 17.3 inches, the chairs combine substantial height with a relatively compact footprint. Arranged as a complete set of eight, their repeating vertical lines create a particularly compelling composition around a dining table. Beautifully restored, they bring warmth, texture, and a distinctive sense of proportion to both modern and layered interiors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Found Collectibles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53039344615711,"sku":"131B","price":18500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/9645\/0847\/files\/158.4.jpg?v=1792003754","url":"https:\/\/foundcollectibles.com\/products\/set-of-eight-dining-chairs-in-hardwood-and-caning-by-celina-decoracoes-brazil-c-1960s-lot-131c","provider":"Found Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
