Joseph SAVINA (1901-1983) Seiz Breur armchair Solid oak and chestnut, carved and patinated with walnut stain. The central medallion of the backrest is carved with neo-Bardic motifs and framed by four bars forming a radiating pattern. Incised broken lines on the belt. Original leather seat. Tréguier, Atelier d'Art Celtique, circa 1928-1930. Height 85cm x Width 55cm x Depth 53cm Joseph Savina, a young designer, discovered the work of Jeanne Malivel, probably without ever having met her, and certainly after her death. It was a revelation, as evidenced by the palpable influence of the Seiz Breur founder on our chair. The Musée des Beaux-Arts de Brest holds a preparatory watercolour drawing of our armchair in its Joseph Savina archive. To date, only two other examples are known to exist: one at the Wolfsonian-FIU in Miami, the other in a private collection in Brittany.
