Set of two stacking chairs by Raoul Guys, featuring slender black lacquered wire frames and thick saddle leather upholstery. The open, linear structure gives the chairs a light, airy look, while the leather surfaces add warmth and material contrast.

Though little is known about the elusive Parisian designer and gallerist, Raoul Guys is associated with a distinct body of mid-century European steel and wicker furniture, often linked to the work of his contemporary and friend, Mathieu Matégot. These chairs embody the spirit of that lineage – stackable, sculptural, and built for everyday use.
