About the Item

This Maison Jansen style French Directoire desk armchair exudes timeless sophistication with its elegant white painted frame and refined proportions. Inspired by the classical Directoire period, the chair features straight, fluted legs, squared arms, and carved detailing that emphasize its neoclassical heritage. The crisp white painted finish highlights the clean architectural lines, while the rich upholstered seat, back, and armrests in a chocolate brown satin fabric with delicate patterned accents add contrast and comfort. Perfectly suited as a desk chair, accent chair, or occasional armchair, this piece combines both style and function. The generous round seat cushion provides supportive comfort, while the upright back ensures a proper seating posture for reading, writing, or working. Its Maison Jansen influence makes it ideal for interiors that embrace French neoclassical elegance, Hollywood Regency glamour, or eclectic design. This painted Directoire armchair is a versatile addition to any home office, library, or living room. Collectors of Maison Jansen furniture and admirers of French neoclassical seating will appreciate its craftsmanship, durability, and timeless appeal. A stunning piece that bridges functionality and artistry, making it a standout in any sophisticated interior.
