Pair of 18th Century Italian Armchairs

About the Item

Low, deep, and wide, this pair of armchairs is exceptionally comfortable, and the gold and black color scheme is very dramatic. What’s most distinctive about them from a design point of view is the spiral fluting of the legs and arm supports. This unusual detail, and the color scheme, mark the chairs Italian. The silk-satin cushions have big bow tiebacks.
