Description
The stars of mid-century were beacons of glamour, of distinct elegance and took on the role of objects of desire for swathes of people. The Bayley bar chai is precisely this – an utterly desirable piece of furniture built for any bar. The piece evokes images of late night dances and dinner parties filled to the brim with ballgowns and pinstripe suits. Structurally, the piece embodies the visual pleasure of the silver screen through its soft curves and its expertly eye-catching design. Talking of desire, the gentles structure upon which the curved backrest sits is the essential starting point when discussing this piece.
The gentle curve of the polished brass support perfectly balances the rounded backrest of the chair, podium-like, with a delicate and alluring beauty. The muted pastel colour of the similarly rounded seat is reminiscent of the rose-tinted spectacles we associate with any experience of nostalgia, providing a comforting warmth to our senses and any room. The tapered, solid walnut wood legs are masterfully crafted to give this piece a lustrous silhouette, that is wonderfully finished with the same polished brass finish of the backrest – making this piece as desirable as it is expertly balanced.
