Set of four Louis XVI carved walnut armchairs - northern Italy, ci

About the Item

Fine set of four walnut armchairs made in northern Italy in the second half of the 18th century in the Louis XVI style. These seats are distinguished by elegant lines and a rare decorative motif carved into the backrest: a radiant sun, an evocative iconographic element that recalls classical or allegorical symbolism. The armchairs have straight backs, fluted truncated legs, and slightly curved armrests, typical features of the Louis XVI style, which was inspired by Greco-Roman classicism. The solid walnut frame shows a warm and uniform patina, the result of time and craftsmanship. Dimensions (each armchair):Height 90 cm - Width 58 cm - Depth 50 cm State of preservation:Good. The structures are solid and well preserved. A preventive woodworm treatment and light polishing is recommended to further enhance the original patina. Shipping:We ship all over the world. We remain available for further information, photographs or details.
