A pear wood and leather art nouveau high backed side chair from the dining room of the Hotel Guimard. This chair is designed with a pear wood high curved backpanel that rounds off at its ends with irregular open shaped “handles” that maintain an abstracted motif that reference the movements and processes of nature. The handles are embellshed with tiny arabesque carvings. Below the wooden panel is a an attenuated pear like shaped designed leather upholstered back which is outlined in brass beading in oval and rounded shapes. On either side are slightly open slats that attach to the back of the seat. The seat is leather and also surrounded with brass beading at the edging. There is a small curved wooden apron and the legs are splay out and end with feet that are adorned with vegetal designs. The seat is of a mustard brown color and it shows much wear. This chair was part of a room that was designed in a most comprehensive expression of art nouveau.

A bent birch plywood arm chair designed by Alvar Aalto for the Paimio Sanitorium. A one-piece curved bent birch plywood scroll-shaped seat in warm natural wood brown tones is suspended in its own frame, with horizontal strips carved out of the top, and the back angled to help sitters breathe more easily. The frame is composed of ribbon-like, curved, laminated bent birch elements also in natural wood brown which form sinuous legs/arms in a trapezium shape at each side of the seat-plane. The form is reinforced by solid birch cross pieces at the curled ends of the back and the seat, and at the rear edge of the legs.
