About the Item

This fine quality French Louis XVI style armchair, circa 1950, showcases timeless elegance and refined craftsmanship. The chair features a beautifully carved oval back with classic cane work, framed by delicate beading and floral crest detailing, true to the neoclassical Louis XVI tradition. Its distressed painted finish in a soft, aged white highlights the carved details while adding a charming antique character. The seat is fitted with a plush round cushion upholstered in a bold burnt-orange fabric, providing a striking contrast to the pale frame. Padded armrests wrapped in coordinating fabric add comfort while maintaining the chair’s cohesive design. The carved seat rail rests on tapered, fluted legs with block rosettes, reflecting the balance and symmetry that define Louis XVI furniture. Perfect for use as a desk chair, accent chair, or vanity seat, this piece blends decorative beauty with functional comfort. Its French neoclassical styling, distressed painted patina, and cane craftsmanship make it a versatile addition to both traditional and eclectic interiors. Collectors and designers alike will appreciate its quality and authentic mid-20th century European charm.
