Description from the seller
This distinguished Louis XV-style armchair, made of walnut wood and retaining its original upholstery, is a piece of great refinement that embodies the decorative elegance of the late 19th or early 20th century. Its sinuous silhouette, with a curved back and cabriole legs, faithfully reflects the Rococo aesthetic reinterpreted in a historicist key, highly regarded in bourgeois interiors of the era.
The ornamental carving on the crest of the backrest and on the finials of the legs exhibits stylized vegetal motifs, executed with mastery on walnut, whose warm tone and deep grain lend nobility and character. The curved armrests, smoothly integrated into the overall design, reinforce visual harmony and seating comfort.
The original upholstery, in beige and gold striped fabric, preserves its elegance and provides a subtle contrast with the wood, evoking a taste for bright and sophisticated interiors. This combination of materials and forms makes it an ideal piece for both classic settings and eclectic spaces that value authenticity and artisanal savoir-faire.
A chair with soul, history and presence, perfect for collectors, decorators or lovers of characterful furniture.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
