A chair in 'Art nouveau' or Jugendstil; the stile was widespread at the beginning of the past century in Europe and if you are lucky you can still see city houses decorated with the curved profiles and floral designs. 1977 (By the way, Eames chairs, among many other designs, are made just next door in the 'city of chairs', Weil am Rhein.)

in the Small Italian Skylicht room in the Small Hermitage there is furniture created by the sketches of architects von Klenze and Montferrand. It was originally made for visitors, and now has become an exhibit. https://hermitagemuseum.org/wps/por...237/?lng=en&523450123450

Another example of the Art nouveau stile: a small French table, part of a set of four stamps illustrating furnishings. Photo of another side table by the same artist, Majorelle; 1994

(Hi Alexey, If I may say so, the Italian room doesn't look small to me! K.)

The Torna stile chair was, and still is, made in southern Sweden. Not particularly comfortable to sit in, one must sit in a very upright position. 1980
