Beautiful And Timeless Silver Chiavari Chairs

By Bonnie Contreras


If you have ever seen lovely silver Chiavari chairs, you understand why these things are so popular. Beautiful and timeless Chiavari chair, sometimes called Tiffany chair or Chiavarina, was first made a long time ago, in small Italian village Chiavari. The local craftsman Giuseppe Gaetano Descalzi, a cabinet maker, designed his first chair after long time of careful consideration about it, and it immediately became very popular, and it is still very popular, in all parts of the world.

It can really be said these chairs are timeless. Although they were first designed a long time ago, they are still highly popular and appreciated. The sets of silver and golden chairs are kept in the White house, too. They use them in the State Dining Room, and in Family Dining Room, and they were also used at president's Obama inauguration. His family members and friends were sitting on them during the ceremony.

You can easily store these lovely pieces, in six to seven chair stalks. That makes them just perfect for rental chairs as well. It is important to protect them while being kept in storage. The maintenance is quite simple, all you need to do is to remove possible stains and fix the joints once a year.

They were originally made using cherry wood, maple wood and after that, some other types of wood, for example beech and ash. The seats are made using very thin strips of purple willow, strong and elastic. The strips were hand woven and tied on the original way for centuries. This old method is still used in small shops producing original chairs in Italy.

Stack ability and lightness wouldn't be so important if these pieces aren't so remarkably timeless and elegant. Today you will find them made from all imaginable materials, including bamboo, polyester, metals such as steel and aluminum, and even bronze. White ones are irreplaceable when it comes to weddings, while silver and gold colored ones make just perfect environment for any special occasion.

Simplicity and lightness of this remarkable piece of furniture make it widely appreciated and highly decorative in any ambiance. Elegant lines and practicality make it the most famous chair ever, and it is just perfect for any special event. It really is a work of art, and that's why numerous designers have already tried to recreate its elegant simplicity and lightness.

Other types of wood can also be used in manufacturing these pieces. For example, mahogany. This lovely, luxurious wood is just perfect for making especially classic and elegant furniture, thanks to its deep and rich color and great performances. It is also very popular lately for making these lovely Chiavarinas. If you prefer lighter, golden nuances, you can choose different woods, for example walnut.

White Chiavarina is mostly used for weddings and similar events. It is especially elegant and will perfectly fit in any decoration. Used for indoor and outdoor weddings, it can be combined with different colors of cushions, fresh flowers or some other decorative elements. Glossy black and custom painted pieces are also available in most shops specialized for this type of furniture.
