About the Item

This exquisite 19th-century Louis XV-style bergère armchair embodies timeless French elegance and craftsmanship. The frame is beautifully carved in solid giltwood, featuring intricate floral and scroll motifs across the crest rail, arms, and legs. The carvings are masterfully executed, reflecting the refined artistry typical of the Louis XV period. The chair is upholstered in a luxurious deep green velvet, which provides a striking contrast to the golden hue of the wood. The sumptuous velvet, adorned with a row of antique brass nailhead trim, enhances the chair’s opulence and adds a sense of regal sophistication. Both the backrest and the generously proportioned seat offer exceptional comfort, making it as functional as it is decorative. This bergère stands on cabriole legs, each delicately carved and ending in scrolled feet, lending the chair a graceful, balanced silhouette. The armrests, padded for comfort, curve elegantly and harmonize with the chair’s overall design. Perfect for a formal living room, bedroom, or reading nook, this 19th-century Louis XV-style chair is an outstanding addition to any classic or eclectic interior. It is an ideal choice for collectors or lovers of fine antique French furniture.
