Description from the seller
Elegant Louis XVI style medallion chair – gilded wood and blue velvet – France, mid-20th century
Beautiful Louis XVI style medallion back chair, featuring an elegant carved wooden frame with a gilded finish and luxurious deep blue velvet upholstery.
This model is inspired by the classic French chairs from the late 18th century and represents one of the most iconic designs of European neoclassical furniture. Louis XVI style seating is characterized by its geometric elegance, oval medallion backrest, tapered legs, and refined carved floral details.
The chair features a solid wood structure finely carved, with floral decorations and fluted front legs typical of the Louis XVI aesthetic. The gilded finish has developed a light patina over time, adding character and authenticity.
The oval upholstered backrest is covered in blue velvet with tufted capitonné work, creating a rich and sophisticated texture. The seat is generously padded and upholstered in matching velvet, ensuring comfort and elegance. Decorative nailhead trim finishes the upholstery.
The back of the backrest is covered with matching fabric and the underside of the seat is protected with upholstery cloth.
Thanks to its elegant proportions, this chair is perfect as:
• vanity chair
• beddingroom or living room accent chair
• decorative entrance piece
• dining chair in a classical interior
• complement for neoclassical or French style interiors
The chair retains a beautiful aged patina, with minor wear consistent with age and use.
Dimensions (approx.)
• Total height: approx. 95–100 cm
• Width: approx. 48–50 cm
