Dating from somewhere between mid-1940s to the early 1950s, this set of four dining chairs comes with a good dose of vintage charm and character, but brought up to date with fresh, new upholstery. They were ‘Commodity Controlled’ produced items (you can see the CC stamp underneath each chair), made to comply with Britain’s war-time and post-war utility scheme. This was at a time when resources, like wood, were scarce but the demand for essential domestic goods like clothes and furniture continued. CC furniture had to be manufactured to strict austerity guidelines but make no mistake, these pieces are superbly crafted, built to last a lifetime and beyond. Their design is simple and utilitarian but this makes them easy pieces to slot into a mixed style home. We have brought them up to date with a teal blue wool that’s hard-wearing and complements the dark tones of the wood wonderfully. Free local delivery / Fast UK delivery / Collection welcome!
