About the Item

A pair of 19th-century French provincial armchairs of compact and well-judged proportions, offering a comfortable scale suited to both traditional and relaxed interior settings. Originating from Puisseguin, just east of Saint-Émilion in the Bordeaux region of France, the chairs reflect the restrained, practical character typical of regional French seating of the period, where comfort and durability were prioritised alongside form. The frames have been traditionally upholstered by Golborne Upholstery, with a down-mix filling to the seat cushions, backs, and arms, respecting established 19th-century upholstery practices while ensuring everyday comfort. They are upholstered in Lorcan Reverse fabric in Banana Palm by English textile designer Cinny Aumonier, whose work reinterprets historic patterns with clarity and balance. A pleasing and usable pair of French provincial armchairs, combining regional provenance, traditional craftsmanship, and a versatile decorative presence.
