About the Item

This magnificent pair of antique French Louis XVI gilded armchairs, dating to the 1870s era, embodies the timeless elegance of neoclassical design. Crafted with exceptional attention to detail, each chair features a finely carved giltwood frame enriched with delicate floral and acanthus motifs. The original gilding, now naturally aged with a beautiful patina, highlights the refined artistry characteristic of the Louis XVI period. The chairs retain their silk damask upholstery in a vibrant red with gold floral patterns, showing significant signs of age and wear consistent with their history. The scrolled armrests, fluted tapered legs, and square backs reflect the symmetry and classical restraint prized in 18th-century France, making them both decorative and highly collectible. Perfect for display in a formal living room, study, or as accent pieces in a refined interior, these authentic French antique armchairs offer sophistication and historic charm. Collectors and interior designers alike will appreciate their rarity, period authenticity, and enduring beauty Measures 41.75 tall x 25.75 wide x 26.25 deep x seat height 17.5
