About the Item

This fantastic pair of gilded ram’s head French carved walnut armchairs, circa 1920, exudes elegance, strength, and timeless sophistication. Each chair is crafted from solid walnut, boasting a warm patina that highlights the refined carving and exceptional craftsmanship of early 20th-century French design. The standout feature is the ornately carved arm terminals, adorned with gilded ram’s heads—symbols of power and luxury that elevate these chairs to statement pieces in any interior. The chairs feature high, rectangular backs that are generously upholstered in a golden damask fabric, perfectly complementing the gilded accents and rich walnut frames. The seats are wide and supportive, offering both comfort and style, while the gracefully curved arms and carved legs showcase the finesse of French artistry. The stretcher base adds stability and completes the design with balance and strength. Ideal for a formal living room, library, or grand sitting area, these armchairs are perfect for collectors, decorators, and enthusiasts of French antiques. Their rare combination of gilded detail, ram’s head motifs, and walnut carving makes them a striking addition to traditional or eclectic spaces, blending functionality with refined neoclassical-inspired charm.
