Item Description
An elegant pair of Louis XVI-style fauteuil armchairs featuring finely carved painted frames with parcel-gilt accents and luxurious chinoiserie-inspired upholstery. The graceful shield-form backs, fluted tapering legs, and carved arm supports reflect the timeless sophistication of late 18th-century French design.
The chairs are upholstered in a richly detailed silk or silk-blend fabric decorated with delicate floral sprays, exotic birds, and whimsical pavilion motifs inspired by classic chinoiserie textiles. Contrasting patterned upholstery on the reverse backs provides additional visual interest and refinement.
The painted ivory-toned frames are highlighted by hand-applied gilt accents along the crest rails, arm terminals, leg capitals, and carved decorative motifs. Their refined scale makes them ideal as occasional chairs, bedroom seating, formal living room accents, or sophisticated additions to a sitting room or dressing area.
A beautifully coordinated designer pair that embodies the elegance of French neoclassical furniture and traditional decorative arts.
Dimensions: 22 1/2"W x 18"D x 38 1/2"H / Seat Height: 19"
Condition: Very good estate condition. Frames remain sturdy and structurally sound. Upholstery presents attractively with light signs of use consistent with age and careful ownership. Minor finish wear to painted and gilt surfaces may be present. Please review photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
