About the Item
The chair presents an S-shaped back with straight crest rail, open arms supported by curving floating supports, and turned front legs complemented by subtly flared back legs. Recently upholstered in a neutral-toned fabric, the seat and backrest are both comfortable and understated, making the chair ready for immediate use.
The restrained profile and thoughtful proportions allow this piece to harmonize with a wide range of decorative styles, from traditional library or study settings to more relaxed modern interiors. A fine and practical 19th-century French armchair with enduring appeal.
