About the Item
This rare pair of François Linke signed giltwood caned Louis XV salon chairs exemplifies the pinnacle of French decorative arts and the artistry of one of the most celebrated ébénistes of the late 19th and early 20th century. Crafted with exceptional attention to detail, each chair features a finely carved giltwood frame with rich rococo motifs, including floral garlands, scrollwork, and delicate shell accents. The original cane backs and sides are beautifully woven, adding both texture and lightness to the design, while the seats retain upholstered cushions for comfort.
François Linke, known for his opulent interpretations of Louis XV and Louis XVI styles, was a master furniture maker whose pieces were exhibited at the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle and commissioned by royalty and aristocracy. His work is highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
These signed chairs are not only functional seating but also museum-quality examples of French craftsmanship. They enhance antique-inspired interiors with authenticity, bring glamour and refinement to Hollywood Regency décor, and provide a dramatic contrast in sleek mid-century modern settings. Rarely does a signed pair of Linke’s work become available, making this offering an extraordinary opportunity for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Measures 34.75 tall x 35.5 wide x 27.75 deep and seat height is approximately 17.75 inches give or take a little for cushion height.

François Linke
François Linke, the most important French ébéniste of his time. Born in Bohemia in 1855, Linke moved to Paris in 1881 where he established his now-famous workshop and showroom. Linke's superior work spread quickly through France and he soon eclipsed even the finest furniture houses of Paris. Today, Linke is counted among the most important furniture makers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his work is dearly coveted by collectors. Linke is celebrated for designing highly innovative furnishings by infusing the Rococo style with the Art Nouveau trends of Paris and this Louis XV style desk exemplifies his highly original style.
