About the Item
This rare pair of 18th century Louis XV armchairs epitomizes the grace, craftsmanship, and artistry of the French Rococo period. Hand-carved from fine walnut, each chair displays the signature cabriole legs, scrolled arms, and floral cresting that define the Louis XV style. The frames are richly patinated with age, enhancing their authenticity and historic charm.
What makes this pair particularly exceptional is the original tapestry upholstery, featuring vibrant floral and foliate motifs in deep reds, greens, and golds. The detailed needlework reflects the artistry of 18th-century French workshops, making these chairs as much works of art as functional seating. The tapestry, though showing signs of age, remains vivid and adds historical significance and provenance to the pair.
These armchairs exemplify the luxury and elegance of French decorative arts during the reign of Louis XV. Their generous proportions and refined carvings make them ideal as statement pieces in a formal living room, study, or collector’s interior.
A true collector’s treasure, this pair of Louis XV tapestry upholstered fauteuils embodies the refinement, rarity, and enduring beauty of 18th century French furniture.
