About the Item

This set of six Maison Jansen attributed Directoire dining chairs exemplifies refined French craftsmanship and timeless neoclassical design. Featuring elegant balloon backrests with a circular silhouette and finely carved fan splats, these chairs embody the sophistication of the Directoire period while reflecting the high-quality workmanship Maison Jansen is celebrated for. The chairs are crafted in richly patinated wood, supported by tapered legs united with curved stretchers for added stability and balance. Each chair is topped with a circular seat, complete with button-tufted upholstered cushions in a soft neutral tone, enhancing both comfort and style. Their classic proportions and graceful lines make them versatile pieces, ideal for formal dining rooms, salons, or refined interiors where French neoclassical design is appreciated. Maison Jansen, known for furnishing grand European estates and iconic interiors, created pieces that blend luxury and understated elegance. These Directoire balloon back dining chairs are no exception, offering a perfect balance between decorative artistry and everyday function. A rare and distinguished set, they present an opportunity to own seating of enduring beauty and historical resonance.
