About the Item

This remarkable salon suite from the Directoire period (circa late 18th century) includes a finely crafted small sofa paired with two matching chairs, embodying the restrained elegance and classical influences characteristic of this era. The set features front and back saber legs, a signature design element of the period, providing both structural integrity and a sleek, refined silhouette. The scrolled backs are adorned with delicate fan motifs and vertical slats, reflecting the neoclassical inspiration prevalent during the Directoire era. The ensemble is upholstered in a chic cotton-linen blend, combining crisp white and black tones that accentuate the clean lines and sophisticated simplicity of the design. This contemporary upholstery choice harmonizes beautifully with the historical frames, making the suite as suitable for a modern setting as it is for a traditional one. This Directoire period suite is not just functional but also a decorative statement, representing a pivotal moment in French design history where the transition from the ornate Rococo to the more restrained Neoclassical style began to take shape.
