About the Item

French 18th Century Pair of Louis XVI Armchairs or Fauteuils, Stamped - Signed This exceptional pair of Louis XVI period armchairs, dating to the late 18th century, bears the prestigious stamp of a Menuisier du Roi (Cabinetmaker to the King), signifying their royal provenance and superior craftsmanship. Crafted from robust beechwood, these fauteuils exemplify the refined neoclassical aesthetic characteristic of the Louis XVI era. Their generous proportions and sturdy construction make them not only visually striking but also suitable for everyday use. Key Features: Design: Known as "fauteuils Marie Antoinette," these chairs feature the distinctive chapeau de gendarme (policeman's hat) crest rail, a hallmark of the period's design. Legs: Elegant fluted and half-reeded legs, reflecting classical Greek and Roman influences. Comfort: Ergonomically designed frames offer both comfort and practicality, embodying the Enlightenment ideals of form and function. Dimensions: 24" W x 23" D x 34.75" H; Seat height: 17"; Arm-to-arm width: 20.5"; Seat depth: 18.5" These armchairs are a testament to the period's emphasis on symmetry, proportion, and restrained ornamentation, making them a timeless addition to any interior.
