Description from the seller
an extremely elegant and atmospheric furniture set in the classic French Louis XV style. This complete set consists of a refined playtable (also beautifully usable as a compact desk) and four matching, hand-carved chairs. A high-quality set with a rich look, perfect for a classic, eclectic, or Hollywood Regency interior.
Features of the table:
Style: Louis XV style with elegantly curved cabriole legs.
Finish: Surrounded by beautiful walnut veneer with refined inlay work (marquetry) in floral motifs, especially around the front drawer.
Tabletop: Inlaid with a dark green (art)leather top featuring a classic gold embossing along the edges.
Details: The drawer is equipped with detailed, patinated brass hardware (knob).
Features of the four chairs:
Backrest: Featuring beautiful and still intact woven cane (webbing / cane). The top of the backrest is decorated with hand-carved floral details.
Legs: Elegant curved slim legs that harmonize perfectly with the playtable.
Condition and restoration potential:
The table and the woodwork of the chairs are structurally in good, sturdy condition with normal, characteristic signs of aging. The leather inlay on the table top shows light, superficial wear and discoloration appropriate to its age.
Note: The crackled (craquelé) leather of the seat coverings is heavily worn and at least one seat shows a tear (see detail photos). The set is structurally perfect, but the seats will need reupholstery in due course. This offers a unique opportunity to personalize the set completely to your taste with a fabric of your choice (for example chic velvet or new leather).
