Pair of French Louis XVI Period 1790s Bergère Marquise Chairs with Upholstery

About the Item

A pair of French Louis XVI period bergères marquises chairs from the late 18th century, with wide seats, carved rosettes, fluted legs and floral upholstery. Created in France during the last decade of the 18th century which saw the end of the Absolute Monarchy, each of this pair of armchairs, called marquises because of their wide seats and low backs, features a wooden structure perfectly complimented by a grey floral upholstery. The chairs are each made of a slightly slanted back topped with a curving rail and carved finials, flowing into the two fulls arms with fluted knuckles and supports. The chairs are upholstered with a floral fabric on grey ground in relatively good shape but nonetheless used condition, secured with a brass nailhead trim. They are raised on cylindrical tapering legs with fluted accents topped with carved rosettes on the front knees. With their Classical lines and nice patina, this pair of Louis XVI period bergères marquises circa 1790 will make for an elegant addition to any home, placed in a living room or bedroom!

    Located in Paris, France
    These authentic Louis XVI period armchairs, original and authentic, seduced me by their modernity. Very rare with their original cream lacquer, flat and square back "à la Reine", with their strict armrests and highly visible assembly, straight legs turned into quivers in the shape of a column tapered down and fluted. The foot ends in a dice that rests on the ground, while the top is cubic is decorated with a circular molding pattern quite rare contrary to the rosette pattern often used for copies - The queen chairs have perfect proportions in their elegant silhouette. In general, I am only interested in design and contemporary pieces, but in the course of my peregrinations I sometimes come across pieces that do not leave me indifferent. As for the lyres chairs, the baccarat chandelier and the large golden mirror...
