About the Item
This elegant set of six French Louis XVI style dining chairs exudes classical refinement and timeless sophistication. Crafted with carved and painted frames in a soft antique white finish, each chair showcases an intricately detailed medallion back featuring a sculpted basket of flowers motif—a hallmark of Louis XVI neoclassical design. The crisp lines, fluted legs, and delicate carved accents highlight the superior craftsmanship and enduring appeal of this style.
The seats are upholstered in a mix of multi-colored fabrics, including rich blue and soft green tones, adding a touch of unique character and eclectic charm. While the upholstery may benefit from re-covering to achieve a more uniform look, the variation offers versatility for blending into both traditional and modern interiors. Sturdy and comfortable, these chairs provide both decorative beauty and functional seating.
Ideal for a refined dining room, breakfast area, or as accent chairs throughout the home, this set of six captures the grace and sophistication of French Louis XVI furniture while offering endless potential for customization.
