About the Item

This is a superb pair of Directoire late 18th century or early 19th century Marquis or bergere a la reine. The quality and rarity of these chairs, in addition to their beauty, speak for themselves. The chairs have retained their original painted surface which has acquired just the right of amount of natural patina. The painted details, although worn, are still present. Additionally, the vintage leather upholstery (with down wrapped cushions) has acquired the right amount of natural patina. Period bergeres of this quality and condition are uncommon and very desirable, Marquis are even more so. Please contact us for additional photos or information.
