Set of 4 Mid-Century Folding Chairs in Painted Steel with Wood Slat Seats

A set of four folding chairs that speak to utility done well.

Solid steel frames with wood slat seats, finished in a soft, time-worn white. Built for use rather than display, these chairs carry the kind of quiet presence that comes from decades of service—likely in a church hall, community space, or gathering room not unlike the one they now sit in.

Each chair has a reassuring weight—approximately 12 lbs—reflecting a time when even functional pieces were built with longevity in mind.

They fold easily, store compactly, and open up a room when needed. Around a long table, pulled into a studio, or kept nearby for when the house fills up—these are chairs that adapt to how people actually live.

There is no signature, no designer attribution. Just proportion, durability, and a sense of ease that feels increasingly rare.

Note: The cast iron lion handle urn shown in select images is sold separately.

Why we kept them together
