EDITORS COMMENTS
Frank Wenger's Chair, 1936 is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. This exquisitely hand-carved chair, created by Wenger, showcases the beauty and craftsmanship of the period. The chair's rich, brown, hand-carved wood is embellished with intricate designs, giving it a unique and eye-catching appearance. The seat of the chair is upholstered in a deep red velvet fabric, adding a pop of color and providing a comfortable and inviting touch. The chair's functional design is further enhanced by its moveable casters, allowing it to be easily maneuvered from one location to another. The casters, or wheels, are discreetly integrated into the chair's design, making them a functional yet unobtrusive feature. This piece is a testament to the artistic and creative spirit of the time, and is a valuable addition to any art centre or gallery's collection of decorative arts and furniture. The chair's index of American Design classification further underscores its historical significance. Wenger's Chair, 1936 is a conceptual work of art as much as it is a functional piece of furniture. The chair's intricate carving and use of color, achieved through watercolor colored pencil, gouache, and graphite on paperboard, make it a work of art in its own right. The chair's heritage value is further enhanced by its association with the United States and the 1930s and 1940s, a period of great change and innovation in American culture and design. This period item, with its hand-carved wood, upholstered seat, and moveable casters, is a true treasure of American arts and crafts, and a must-see for anyone interested in the history and evolution of American design.
