Napoleon III Carved Side Chair with Metal Ornaments and Red Velvet, circa 1860
Napoleon III Carved Side Chair with Metal Ornaments and Red Velvet, circa 1860

Napoleon III Carved Side Chair with Metal Ornaments and Red Velvet, circa 1860

Located in Boven Leeuwen, NL

An elegant French side chair from around 1860, with a richly carved dark wooden frame, decorative metal ornaments and fresh red velvet upholstery. It is a characterful example of the eclectic, opulent furniture made in France during the Second Empire, and it brings instant warmth and a touch of theatre to any room. The tall back is framed by carved uprights and topped with a shaped crest rail, which carries a set of initials, a lovely personal detail that hints at the chair's history. Small metal ornaments are set into the frame, catching the light against the dark wood. The seat rests on turned front legs, typical of the period's revival of Louis XVI forms. The chair has been completely reupholstered in a deep red velvet with a striped pattern. The fresh fabric makes it comfortable and ready to use, while the contrast between the rich red and the dark wood gives it a luxurious, dramatic look. Stylistically, the chair belongs to the Napoleon III period and sits comfortably alongside Louis XVI revival, Victorian and Second Empire furniture...

Pair of Antique Northern French Ebonized Rush Seat Chairs, circa 1900
Pair of Antique Northern French Ebonized Rush Seat Chairs, circa 1900

Pair of Antique Northern French Ebonized Rush Seat Chairs, circa 1900

Located in Boven Leeuwen, NL

A beautifully understated pair of antique rush-seat chairs from Northern France, circa 1900. The frames have a deep ebonized finish that has been softened by decades of use into a lovely patina, with gentle wear along the edges revealing warm brown tones beneath the dark surface. The hand-woven rush seats add a natural, tactile counterpoint to the dark wood. Design The silhouette is classic Northern French country: slender proportions, gently arched back uprights, a wide curved top rail and a second back rail below it, all on a sturdy base with stretchers. These are honest, vernacular chairs, made for everyday use in farmhouses and village homes, and that simplicity is exactly what makes them so easy to combine with other furniture today. They work as functional seating and as sculptural styling pieces that add depth and history to a room without overpowering it. Condition Good antique condition, with wear to the ebonized finish and rush seats consistent with age and use. Please see the photos for details. Dimensions per chair: height 90 cm, width 46 cm, depth 45 cm, seat height 50 cm. Sold as a pair. Where they fit In a wabi-sabi or Japandi interior, the calm dark lines and organic rush texture create an effortless balance. In a French farmhouse or European country setting, they are at home around a rustic dining table, in a breakfast nook or in a kitchen corner. In a modern minimalist space they make great accent chairs that add warmth, texture and history. They also look lovely styled as a pair in an entrance hall beneath a painting or mirror, or in a bedroom. Style references Rush-seated country chairs like these have inspired generations of designers. Think of the rush chairs of Charlotte Perriand, the relaxed modernism of Pierre Chapo, or the rush-seated designs of Børge Mogensen and Hans Wegner, all of which draw on the same honest tradition. Interior designers who work with collected, texture-driven spaces often use antique chairs like these to bring depth to a contemporary room.
