Hattie & Hettie are clearly small town girls. While this cute pair is not the highest style set around, they have lots of personality, and amazingly, show clear Paris-influenced style. Whomever did the chair rail carving in the late 1920s or early 1930s knew a thing or two about that newfangled style called Art Deco. Despite the fact their overall form is traditional Rococo Revival, the owner or maker decided they wanted a shot of the new, something bold to give a simple chair a splash of the big city. The stylized leaves shoot out from the blossom with great force and sharp angles mimicking depictions of radio waves or the profile of a New York skyscraper. These are not your ordinary kitchen chairs, no, these embrace the new, the modern.
