Pair of French Carved Walnut Wood Baroque Style Armchairs
About the Item
Pair of custom made hand carved walnut armchairs. Ivory and Light Blue patterned upholstery.
Baroque architecture of the 17th and 18th centuries was known for its highly decorative style, often employing structural elements as sculpted motifs. Baroque furniture, such as this walnut armchair, also utilized this technique. Notice the elaborately carved arm stumps and front legs of the chair (hand-carved in the mid-1900s), both of which have a large volute accompanied by a smaller whorl. Interestingly, they were carved inversely: the arm stump has a small volute above the larger one, while the legs have a large volute above the smaller version. Both sections are also adorned with a small foliate margent on the facing of the large volute.
An even more detailed carving comprises the front connector that runs between the two front legs. Scrolls, counter curves, and volutes seamlessly unite in a pierced cartouche centered around a heart-shaped olive swag over a flower. The chair is further strengthened by an H-shaped stretcher with an offset center connector (it is positioned more forward than the usual H-stretcher). Each front foot has been sculpted as a ball foot flanked by two volute scrolls, while the two back feet are blocked with a dramatic slope towards the front. Most of the carvings that embellish the chair have subtle cavetto channels that run along the edges.
