Description from the seller
Pair of Chairs in Louis XV Style – Carved and Gilded Wood with Green Velvet Upholstery
Elegant pair of chairs inspired by the taste of **Louis XV**, featuring a refined structure in **carved and gilded wood** richly adorned with rocaille motifs, volutes and sculpted foliage. The contoured backs and wide, comfortable seats are upholstered in **dark green velvet**, a shade that creates a striking contrast with the gilding of the frame, highlighting its dramatic presence.
The cabriole legs, joined by the sinuous profile of the belt, faithfully recall the elegance of the eighteenth-century French repertoire, reinterpreted according to the decorative taste of prestigious productions between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The carving work, enriched with floral details and stylized shells, gives depth and movement to the whole.
A pair with a strong decorative impact, ideal for living rooms, ceremonial rooms, or classical settings, where they can serve both as prestigious seating and as a striking piece of furniture. They retain a pleasant patina of time, with light signs of use consistent with the age and nature of the object.
