Description from the seller

Armchairs – Walnut – Magnificent Rich Carving
Belgium – Louis XVI style – 1850-1900

Pair of monumental antique armchairs in Louis XIV style – ca. 1860

Elegant pair of antique armchairs in Louis XIV style, made from solid walnut wood. The chairs feature rich hand-carved details, turned elements and traditional mortise-and-tenon joints, typical of artisanal furniture from the 19th century.

The subtle variations in the woodcarving indicate authentic handwork and give each chair a unique character. The upholstery was renewed in the past and provided with modern foam filling for extra seating comfort. The decorative fabric is in neat condition and complements the classical character of the chairs.

Originating from a historic building in Stabroek (Belgium). According to local tradition, the building would be connected to the former inn “De Groene Swaen”, which was already mentioned in the region in the 17th century. This information is provided solely as historical context and not as a guarantee of provenance.

The chairs are in good antique condition with normal signs of use and aging appropriate to their age. Natural wear is visible under the legs due to years of use.

Over the years the solid walnut wood has developed a beautiful warm patina, which further enhances the authentic character and appearance of the chairs.

Sold as a pair.

Very decorative overall, ideal for a classic interior, library, country-style interior, mansion or for lovers of antique furniture.

Everything is carefully packaged & securely protected for shipping.

Shipping to islands or destinations outside Europe on request.
