Six prioress chairs in solid walnut. Friuli, 17th century. 46 x 37 x h 106 cm. A group of six prioress chairs entirely made of solid walnut, attributable to the artisanal production of Friuli in the 17th century. The backrest, a rectangular panel framed by squared uprights, is connected to the seat by a carved traverse with a sinuous and lobed profile. The same decorative solution is found in the front traverses under the seat. The lower traverse between the back legs is shaped as a double volute, a typical element of popular carpentry in the region. The seat is in solid wood with a slightly rounded front profile. A group of direct comparison is preserved at the Carnic Museum of Popular Arts "Michele Gortani" in Tolmezzo (Udine).
