About the Item
19th Century French Louis XIV Walnut Armchair with Needlepoint Tapestry is a remarkable example of sculpture that also happens to be a comfortable chair! Hand-carved from select French blonde walnut, it features the boldly artistic stylings that are a hallmark of the Louis XIV genre, from the elegantly arched seatback carved with grapes, acanthus plumes and shells, with carvings extending around the entire perimeter of the seatback and even on the uprights joining it to the seat frame below. The gracefully formed armrests are padded, an also carved with classic embellishment. The apron is a work of art unto itself with more of the same theme on all three sides including the legs in front. All four legs are subtly scrolled and tipped with escargots. The upholstery is a distinctly separate work of art unto itself with the seat back, seat and armrest pads all exhibiting an incredibly skilled and artistic rendering of floral and foliate designs that perfectly meld with the framework to create a showcase piece that will draw the admiration of all who enter the room!

18th Century French Walnut Louis XV Style Fauteuil with Original Petit Point
Located in Louisville, KY
This mid 18th century French Louis XV walnut fauteuil with seemingly gloriously original upholstery portrays an exquisite petit-point that shows beautiful aging and a few minor areas that are reparable. The chair frame encompassing the padded back, arms, and serpentine-fronted seat apron are of rich walnut and are intricately hand carved revealing a floral crest in the center the top frame, flanked with stunningly done leaves that wrap the upper corners and continue down to the arms leading into the front seat apron with recessed gadroons along the way ultimately revealing a floral motif that continues on the crowns of the hipped cabriole legs that finish with a single scroll on pad bottoms. The overall wood of this chair is quite spectacular in that it seems to have the original rubbed finish which reveals the raw beauty of the wood and the patina flows beautifully into the wonderfully aged petit-point covering.
This piece was part of a collection of a prominent Louisville family and spent a portion of its life in a stunning music conservatory as a piece of historic art beautifully positioned next to an antique baby grand piano.
