About the Item

In the category of unique corner chairs, this circa 18th century carved oak corner chair featuring dark stain, floral chair rail, arms, and scalloped slanted splats is in the forefront as a one-of-a-kind piece. With ornately carved apron frame and square legs, reflecting the upper carvings, the style and somewhat primitive design of the carving, along with the chair design, could place this in the early Dutch Colonial era. Upholstered seat is a drop in, surface finish shows some wear indicative of a piece this age. There appears to have been a very old repair done to one leg, doesn’t impact structural integrity as all. Chair is a wonderful piece and would be a stunning addition to a room grouping with eclectic or eccentric flair or perhaps a more traditional room design. So many possibilities!

18th Century French Walnut Louis XV Style Fauteuil with Original Petit Point
Located in Louisville, KY
This mid 18th century French Louis XV walnut fauteuil with seemingly gloriously original upholstery portrays an exquisite petit-point that shows beautiful aging and a few minor areas that are reparable. The chair frame encompassing the padded back, arms, and serpentine-fronted seat apron are of rich walnut and are intricately hand carved revealing a floral crest in the center the top frame, flanked with stunningly done leaves that wrap the upper corners and continue down to the arms leading into the front seat apron with recessed gadroons along the way ultimately revealing a floral motif that continues on the crowns of the hipped cabriole legs that finish with a single scroll on pad bottoms. The overall wood of this chair is quite spectacular in that it seems to have the original rubbed finish which reveals the raw beauty of the wood and the patina flows beautifully into the wonderfully aged petit-point covering. This piece was part of a collection of a prominent Louisville family and spent a portion of its life in a stunning music conservatory as a piece of historic art beautifully positioned next to an antique baby grand piano.
