Set of Four Mid‑Century Rattan Bar Stools - In the Manner of Seng of Chicago, c.1960s Stylish, sculptural, and effortlessly sociable - the perfect perch for cocktails, conversation, and quiet elegance. Date: Circa 1960s Origin: Continental Europe or USA Maker / Attributed to: In the manner of Seng of Chicago echoing the iconic American designs of the 1950s and 60s.

While Seng’s originals typically featured swivel mechanisms, this set has fixed seats and construction details more consistent with later production, circa 1960s. The curved backrests and circular footrests offer comfort and support, while the neutral palette of black and beige makes them easy to style in a variety of interiors. Visual Details The rattan is tightly woven and retains its natural tone, with subtle variations that add depth and character. The black metal frames are clean and sturdy, with a gentle patina that speaks to their age. All four stools have been fitted with new rubber feet to protect floors and ensure stability. Please examine all photographs carefully for a complete understanding of each item’s condition. These images form a crucial part of our detailed condition report, offering clear insights into the craftsmanship, patina, and quality of this piece. Styling Suggestions Perfect for a kitchen island, home bar, or boutique café setting, these stools invite relaxed conversation and timeless style. Pair with brass accents, tropical greenery, or mid‑century lighting for a cohesive look - or let them stand alone as sculptural seating in a minimalist space.
