{"product_id":"folk-art-horseshoe-armchair","title":"Folk Art Horseshoe Armchair, American, Mid-20th Century","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilt entirely from used horseshoes — worn thin at the toe, nail holes still open — cut, bent, and welded into a chair by hand. The back opens into a fan. The arms scroll. Even the feet finish in small forged flourishes that serve no structural purpose at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHorseshoe furniture belongs to a long American vernacular tradition: shop pieces made from spent shoes, part demonstration of a blacksmith’s skill and part accumulated luck. Typically improvised rather than made to a standard pattern, every surviving example has its own eccentricities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis was the first piece of furniture Richard bought after purchasing the house, and it has been his lucky horseshoe chair at Flamingo Estate ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld red paint throughout, worn back to bare iron across the seat and arm rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExceptionally heavy, solid, and entirely unrestored.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-forged and welded iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e34 3\/4\"H, 23 1\/2\"L, 17\"W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo purchase, email us at \u003ca href=\"mailto:concierge@flamingoestate.com\"\u003econcierge@flamingoestate.com\u003c\/a\u003e.
