Antique & Stunning Set of Three Gothic Savonarola Dante Armchairs w. Red Seat

About the Item

Unique, top quality hand carved and highly decorative antique set of 3, 19th Century curule armchairs in red velvet – Renaissance Revival Elegance. This elegant set of three matching armchairs is a rare find — and a true statement in any interior. Crafted in the late 19th century, likely around 1850–1890, these chairs are inspired by Renaissance and Baroque designs, featuring the classic curule (X-frame) base that echoes the furniture once found in noble courts and ecclesiastical settings. The solid wood frames are beautifully curved and connected with a distinctive cross-stretcher, offering both visual strength and sculptural balance. Upholstered in rich red velvet and finished with traditional bullion fringe and brass tacks, the chairs exude a sense of formality, warmth, and old-world craftsmanship. What makes this set special is its character: you can almost picture them lining a grand hall, a historic study, or even a chapel. Whether you're furnishing a refined living space, designing a period-inspired room, or curating a gallery, these chairs bring history, style, and presence with them. If you already have a place and space in mind for it then maybe you should be its next custodian. If you can afford this type of quality and beauty's, then why settle for less?
