EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning side chair, created by American artist Alfred Nasson in 1936, is a beautiful example of the decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. The chair, one of six known to exist, is a masterpiece of hand carving and woodworking, with intricate brown and purple decoration embellishing the wooden frame. The design features geometric patterns, organic shapes, and flowing lines, all executed with meticulous attention to detail. Nasson, a renowned artist and craftsman, used a combination of watercolor, colored pencil, graphite, and gouache on paperboard to create the initial design for the chair. This detailed drawing served as a guide for the hand carving and woodworking process, resulting in a seamless integration of form and function. The side chair is upholstered in a rich, plush fabric, adding to its inviting and comfortable appearance. The use of upholstery complements the hand carved decoration, creating a harmonious balance between the organic and the manufactured. This side chair is a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. It is a period item that would be a prized addition to any art gallery or museum, as well as to a private collection of decorative arts. The chair's timeless design and superb craftsmanship make it a true treasure of American art and furniture.
