About the Item

This pair of carved walnut French Louis XVI needlepoint armchairs, circa 1880, embodies the elegance and refinement of 19th-century French craftsmanship. Exquisitely detailed, each chair features a hand-carved walnut frame with classic Louis XVI motifs, including fluted legs, rosettes, and intricate floral embellishments that highlight the artistry of the era. The rich walnut patina has aged beautifully, enhancing the overall character and authenticity of these antique armchairs. The upholstered backs, seats, and armrests are adorned with finely worked floral needlepoint tapestry, showcasing vibrant hues of rose, green, and gold against a warm background. The upholstery, though naturally showing signs of age, retains its charm and period authenticity, making these chairs not only functional seating but also collectible decorative pieces. Perfect for formal living rooms, libraries, or master suites, these Louis XVI armchairs offer both sophistication and comfort. Whether displayed as accent chairs, placed alongside a writing desk, or used in a conversation setting, they reflect the timeless luxury of French neoclassical design. Collectors and interior designers seeking authentic French antiques will find these needlepoint armchairs a rare and distinguished addition to any fine home or collection.
