AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant pair of gilded Louis XV armchairs – ladies’ and gentlemen’s chair – 20th century
⸻
Description
Very charming pair of richly gilded armchairs in Louis XV / Rococo style, executed as a classic ladies’ and gentlemen’s chair. The distinction is visible in the ornamentation of the cresting and the contouring of the back:
• Armchair (right): a somewhat bolder and more expressive carved ornament, with a more pronounced crest and a sturdier appearance.
• Ladies' chair (left): a more refined and elegant ornament, with softer lines and a visually lighter appearance.
Both chairs are made of wood and richly gilded, with gracefully curved cabriole legs and openwork Rococo carving. The chairs are upholstered in a decorative fabric with floral and vase motifs in soft pastel colors, in keeping with the style.
The whole forms a harmonious salon pair, ideal for a classic interior, bedroom, or as decorative accent chairs.
