About the Item
This elegant pair of Louis XVI medallion armchairs perfectly captures the refinement of 19th century French neoclassical design. Crafted in carved giltwood, each chair features the iconic oval medallion back, a hallmark of Louis XVI style, enhanced by delicately fluted legs, a decoration of ribbons, garlands of laurel wreaths and acanthus leaves and subtle floral carvings. The rich, warm gilding highlights the sculptural details and brings a luxurious glow to the frames.
Upholstered in a sophisticated Blue damask and silk fabric with a soft sheen, these armchairs combine comfort and elegance. The wide, supportive seats and gracefully curved backs make them ideal for both decorative and functional use, whether in a refined living room, a cozy reading corner, or as statement chairs in a bedroom or entrance hall.
Their timeless design allows them to complement both traditional interiors and eclectic contemporary spaces that embrace a touch of French heritage. The natural patina of the giltwood, combined with minimal wear consistent with age, adds character and authenticity without compromising their charm.
For a cohesive ensemble, an identical pair of armchairs and a matching sofa are also available for sale.
