Set of Six Vintage Directoire Style Black & Gold Dining Chairs Modern Chic
About the Item
We have admired this style of chairs for years, but it took 13 years in business to find this set. Custom made in the early 1960s by Indianapolis Chair Co in Aurora, Indiana for a Beverly Hills estate. He a famous surgeon and she a model and muse of a legendary fashion designer. They were the top of the line in high end furniture. The Directoire style was a classic for the the rich and famous and still looks amazingly chic and modern today. We searched many companies for the appropriately correct fabric for the seats. Done with piping exactly as per the original, we picked a French intricately woven geometric black threads on an off white ground. They look perfect on the chairs. We have cleaned the black gloss finish on the wood. They do not look 100% new but they look amazing in their original finish. The antique gold metal trim rosette on backs and diamond studs are amazing. A really special and rare set of chairs!

An Exceptional Set of Six Inlaid Directoire Period Mahogany Dining Chairs
By Charles Percier
Located in Ottawa, Ontario
All six frames featuring swan shaped brass inlaid motifs strikingly silhouetted against ebonized panels within brass moldings, over hand carved lyre-shaped splats replete with brass 'strings'. The frames also featuring brass strung stiles, front seat rails & sabre-leg front supports. All are in exceptionally sound condition due to the classical construction method of using oak as the secondary wood for added strength & durability.
The swan motif was highly favored by cabinetmakers & mount makers during the Directoire Period and was associated with Napoleons consort Josephine, by interpreting her protective nature towards her children like that of a swan towards it's cygnets).
