Antonín Šuman Dining Chairs, Tatra Nábytok, Czechoslovakia 1960s

Set of four mid-century dining chairs designed by Antonín Šuman and produced by Tatra nábytok Pravenec in Czechoslovakia during the 1960s.

These chairs feature an elegant sculptural bentwood backrest with a characteristic open arch and tapered solid wood legs.
