French Napoleon III Armchair with Tufted Back

About the Item

A handsome French 19th century armchair with diamond tufted back and scrolled arms. This elegant armchair from the Napoleon III period captures the intricate details and romantic beauty that is typical of this period in French design. The graceful curve of the back carries through to the arms, highlighted by intricate tufting that stands out exquisitely against the plain upholstered seat – an impeccable touch of classic design styling. Stripped down to the original muslin, this stately armchair is ready to be upholstered in the fabric of your choice, giving you the opportunity to choose a definitive look that is all your own. The charming Napoleon III style is perfect for any living area, giving an air of classic elegance and character. Please note that this chair has been stripped to the muslin and is ready to be re-upholstered in the fabric of your choice. Please ask any specific questions about the condition of the chair in advance. We always recommend reupholstering vintage seating before using. All seating is sold as is. We will gladly send you more photos if you ask. Ref #: SNA1223-10 Dimensions: 32”H x 33”W x 37”D (14“ Seat Height)
