Louis XV Pair of Tan Silk Brocade Carved Armchairs in Oak with Two Pillows

About the Item

This is a beautiful set of fauteuils in a neutral tan, in the style of Louis XV. Chairs of the Louis XV period style are comfortable, more comfortable than the Louis XIV period. The chairs of this period take on a lighter appearance, scaled down from the more massive furniture that came earlier, and the two armchairs offered here reflect that. The chairs are light, but they are sturdy. They are beautiful, upholstered in tan silk with a French empire wreath design and two large self pillows. The chairs are made of oak that has developed a deep patina, and there is detailed carving on the back, knees and legs of the chairs. The chairs measure 28 inches wide, 27 inches deep and 38 inches tall.
