About the Item

This unique piece was created in the 19th century. It resembles the footstool that graced the private upstairs sitting room of the Parisian home of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor (see image 20). This Louis XVI style tabouret features carved wood with intricate beading and rosettes. The legs of the footstool are painted in a creamy Trianon grey colour, creating a lovely contrast with the light blue velvet upholstery. This footstool closely ressembles the style of other small furnishings made by Maison Jansen. This distinctive piece would make the perfect addition to any elegant living space or bedroom. Dimensions of the footstool: - Height of the footstool: 14" - Depth of the footstool: 15" - Width of the footstool: 22"

French Louis XVI Low Caned Fireside Slipper Chair, 18th Century
Located in Montreal, Quebec
French Louis XVI low caned fireside slipper chair, 18th century. This very rare and exceptional low chair is very old, and has withstood the test of time in a remarkably good state, with a minor loss to the base of the caning in a lower corner of the back (see picture). The caning has a lovely pattern. This low, deep chair was probably a fireside chair. However small metal bolts in the back suggest that it may have at some point been attached, possibly to a vehicle or to some kind of carrying device. It is beautiful and highly decorative. Though it is quite comfortable, we do not recommend it be used for seating to protect the antique caned seat...
