19th Century French Antique Louis XV Daybeds
Wood, Down
The style of 18th-century French furniture was guided by the court. When Louis XV, who reigned from 1715–74, focused royal life on the smaller salons of Versailles rather than its grand chambers, it transformed the aesthetics away from the imposing and angular furniture that characterized the style of Louis XIV. A broader focus on comfort and more delicate forms define antique Louis XV furniture, with nature-inspired carvings, wood inlays, curved cabriole legs, asymmetrical shapes and rounded oval seat backs. The furnishings changed throughout the king’s life, as he ascended to the throne as a child and then grew to establish his own tastes.
Pieces like the bergère, an upholstered armchair with a wide cushion that fit the flowing dresses in fashion at the time, reflected this more informal court. Introduced at the start of Louis XV’s reign, bergère chairs in this style were deeper and broader than other chairs of the period.
Louis XV tapestries and carpets tended to be floral and colorful, and design elements were borrowed from Asia. Dutch-born cabinetmaker Bernard van Risenburgh brought lacquer techniques influenced by Japan and China into his luxuriously made furniture. Along with its fine details, the furniture of the era also featured new innovations including mechanical devices. Jean François Oeben, a royal cabinetmaker, created such intricate pieces as a mechanical table for Madame de Pompadour, Louis XV’s mistress. It involved a sliding top and a writing surface that extended from its marquetry panels.
During the later years of Louis XV’s reign, there was a shift from the ostentatious rocaille style, part of the exuberantly decorative Rococo movement in Europe for which designers such as Nicolas Pineau and Juste-Aurèle Meissonier are known. The style under Louis XVI would return to boxier forms, but with a neoclassical touch inspired by the ancient world.

1940's Pair French Louis XV Style Carved Armchairs
Located in Swedesboro, NJ
This attractive pair of French Louis XV-style armchairs, dating to approximately the 1940s, displays the graceful curves, restrained carving, and comfortable proportions characteristic of traditional French seating. Made in France and conceived in the enduring Louis XV taste, the chairs combine warm, richly toned wooden frames with elegant cream-colored upholstery, resulting in a versatile and sophisticated pair suitable for both traditional and eclectic interiors. Each chair features a generously proportioned upholstered cartouche-shaped back, gently rounded across the crest and narrowing subtly toward the lower portion. The exposed molded wooden framework follows the back in a continuous series of flowing curves, with a small carved foliate flourish centered along the crest rail. The warm brown finish reveals attractive variations in the wood grain and has developed a pleasing patina consistent with age and use. The open arms are particularly graceful, sweeping outward from the back before terminating in curved handrests fitted with padded upholstered armrests. Elegantly shaped supports descend from the arms into the seat frame, their sinuous profiles contributing to the fluid, sculptural character associated with the Louis XV aesthetic. A broad, comfortable upholstered seat rests above a beautifully shaped serpentine apron. The front rail rises and falls in a series of gentle curves and is enriched at its center with carved floral and foliate ornament. From the shaped seat frame descend four characteristic cabriole legs, the front pair particularly expressive, with softly modeled knees and slender curved profiles terminating in delicate scrolling feet. The chairs are upholstered in a refined cream or pale champagne damask-style textile with a subtle tone-on-tone floral and foliate pattern. The same fabric covers the backs, seats, and padded armrests, giving the pair a harmonious and understated appearance. These French armchairs present well and retain an appealing sense of age and authenticity. The wooden frames exhibit normal wear, minor surface marks, rubbing, and variations to the finish consistent with their circa-1940 date and regular use. The upholstery appears attractive and serviceable from visual inspection; however, as with all vintage upholstered furniture...
