About the Item
A fine pair of French, circa 1785, late Louis XVI fauteuils having tall tablet form backrests on channeled vertical supports issuing shaped arms ending in 'dolphin-nose' arm-rests above carved twist and foliate baluster form supports, the wide D-form seats exquisitely upholstered in Old World Weavers patterned horsehair above channeled seat-rails with carved 'lamb's tongue' connecting to rosette blocks on stop-fluted tapered legs. Arm-height: 26".
These chairs are firmly attributed to the Paris workshop of Georges Jacob, maître ébéniste to Louis XVI in 1765 and working until 1796. Stylistically the form of this chair is an early example of the transitioning of French taste preceding the Revolution from traditional French designs to the emerging neoclassical styles of what becomes the Directoire and Empire. Provenance: Private Southampton, New York collection.
