Set of 6 French Rosewood Antique Balloon-Back Side Chairs with Cabriole Legs

About the Item

A set of six Fine French Rosewood Antique side chairs, dating from the mid to late 19th century (1850-1880), during the Second Empire period. These chairs feature elegant balloon backs with intricate carvings and scrolling details, showcasing the craftsmanship of the era. The serpentine fronts and cabriole legs add to their graceful silhouette, while the overstuffed seats, upholstered in rich golden velvet, reflect the luxurious textures and warm colours favoured during the Victorian period. This set embodies the opulent Rococo Revival style, combining comfort with decorative sophistication. Great condition throughout with some signs of age and use through light scuffs and marks, including slight wear/fading to the finish.
