MODERN PAIR OF HALL ANTLER HORN CHAIRS BY SCHIRATO, ITALY
A very unusual pair of hall chairs or side chairs made by Danilo Schirato, northern Italy. Antlers were already used in the late 15th century as a source material for clothes hooks, storage racks and chandeliers, the so-called "lusterweibchen". Furniture made by antlers started being made in the 19th century and can therefore be assigned to the Biedermeier period.
