Side Chair

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Side Chair by Dunlap has a backrest with curved top and sides resembling a shell or a fan. The backrest features a central vertical element decorated with carved designs and flanked by multiple curved slats on either side. The seat is rectangular with rounded corners, upholstered in white and light gray striped fabric. A decorative trim of small balls runs along the edge of the seat. The four legs are straight and tapered with a slight curve outward at the bottom. The entire chair appears to be made of dark wood. The background is light gray.
