The Emmanuelle chair from the 1970s is a handwoven piece crafted from natural rattan, originating from German craftsmanship of the era. Its construction is defined by a high, fan-shaped backrest that seamlessly transitions into gently curved armrests. The warm, honey-beige color of the rattan is accented by darker, almost black stripes and diamond-shaped patterns, particularly prominent on the edges and backrest. A wide, circular pedestal base provides stability, while the dense, precise weave of natural fibers leaves a subtle irregularity to the touch, characteristic of handmade work. The matte finish preserves the organic texture, and the piece remains in very good vintage condition—free from visible damage or significant wear, with its authentic, untouched patina.The chair’s form reflects the imagination of the 1970s—a decade searching for freedom and exoticism in everyday objects. The dramatic, fan-like back evokes colonial inspirations, while the handwoven structure carries the mark of human craftsmanship. This chair tells a story of vintage interiors, where it once symbolized informal luxury, and of sunlit afternoons when light filters through the openwork rattan, casting soft shadows on the floor. Its presence always imparts a sense of relaxed, almost theatrical lightness to the space.This chair may serve as the visual anchor of a living room or conservatory, harmonizing with soft textiles—ethnic patterned cushions or woolen throws. It pairs well with low wooden stools, organically shaped ceramics, and large potted plants. Suitable for boho, eclectic, or colonial-inspired interiors, it can also be used as a striking decorative prop in photo shoots, where its silhouette becomes a key element of the scene.
