About the Item
This exceptional pair of French Fauteuil à la Reine armchairs from the late 19th century epitomizes regal sophistication and neoclassical grandeur. Dating to the 1890s, these fauteuils are finely crafted with richly carved giltwood frames, exuding elegance and opulence characteristic of the French Louis XVI revival style. The chairs feature rectangular backs and straight, fluted legs, reflecting the traditional “à la Reine” design, which was celebrated for its stately presence and symmetrical form.
Each chair is upholstered in luxurious black leather, accented with decorative brass nailhead trim that enhances the giltwood’s brilliance. The carving is superbly detailed, with classical motifs including acanthus leaves, rosettes, and floral garlands that frame the seats and arms, showcasing the artistry of late 19th century French craftsmanship.
These gilded armchairs offer both comfort and refinement, making them perfect for a formal living room, library, or as standout accent pieces in a designer interior. Collectors and connoisseurs will appreciate their authenticity, patina, and timeless aesthetic, while decorators will value their bold presence. A rare pair of French 1890s fauteuils, these armchairs embody luxury and history in equal measure.
