About the Item

Elegant 19th-century French armchair upholstered in a soft terracotta velvet, featuring a refined silhouette and generous proportions typical of the Napoleon III period. This inviting bergère boasts a gracefully rounded back, plush seat, and delicately curved arms that provide exceptional comfort. The chair is finished with a charming hand-applied bullion fringe in a golden beige tone, adding a touch of classic opulence to its design. Its rich coral velvet upholstery enhances its warm character, while the deep seat and enveloping shape make it perfect for a reading corner, bedroom, or salon. The chair remains in very good condition with minor wear consistent with age, emphasizing its authentic patina. A quintessential example of 19th-century French craftsmanship, blending comfort, style, and timeless charm. Perfect as a statement piece in both traditional and eclectic interiors.
