38.5H x 23.5W x 23D; seat 19H
Location: Dallas
Elegant pair of Louis XVI style armchairs features the classic medallion (oval) backs so beloved of the neoclassical period. The graceful rounded silhouette is framed by finely carved wood, now beautifully stripped to reveal a soft, natural patina that highlights the craftsmanship beneath.
The frames display traditional Louis XVI details ~ fluted tapering legs, rosette blocks at the joints, and gently scrolling arms that terminate in understated carved volutes. The clean lines and symmetry reflect the enduring influence of 18th-century French design, inspired by the rediscovery of classical antiquity.
Upholstered in refined silk with decorative nailhead trim, the chairs offer both comfort and poise. The neutral tone of the fabric pairs effortlessly with the light wood finish, making them versatile additions to both traditional and transitional interiors.
A timeless and sophisticated seating pair—equally at home in a salon, bedroom, or study.
Sold as a PAIR.
Circa mid-1900s
Each measures 38.5H x 23.5W x 23D; seat 19H
