About the Item

A French Neoclassical style carved back slipper chair with needlepoint seat circa 1920-1930. This elegant French slipper chair, crafted circa 1920-1930, epitomizes the refined taste and classic aesthetic of early 20th-century French furniture design. The carved back of the chair draws inspiration from the theme of the hunt, featuring motifs of quivers and arrows that lend a sense of historical grandeur. A delicately carved urn crowns the top rail, while reeded posts adorned with carved ribbons frame the sides, adding depth and texture to its design. The chair's needlepoint seat, adorned with brass nailhead trim, rests gracefully on four legs — two straight and fluted legs at the front, each accented with carved rosettes where they meet the skirt, and two smooth saber legs at the back that provide a balanced silhouette. Reflecting a return to neoclassical simplicity following the Art Nouveau movement, this chair embodies the early 20th-century shift towards aerodynamic forms and classical motifs, such as the quivers, arrows, and flares. Positioned in a living room or a sophisticated dressing room, this French slipper chair brings a luxurious touch of neoclassicism into contemporary settings. Its delicate carvings and intricate needlepoint seat provide a rich contrast to more modern furniture, serving as a captivating accent piece that celebrates both historical artistry and timeless elegance. Whether placed as a functional seat or a decorative accent, this chair enhances any space with its understated yet opulent presence.
