About the Item

This elegant armchair is a refined example of French Bergère seating, likely crafted in the mid-to-late 20th century in the Louis XV or Louis XVI Revival style. The carved wooden frame features classic cabriole legs and a gently rounded back, with a soft, distressed pickled finish that lends the piece a subtly aged, whitewashed patina. The curves of the crest rail, arms, and skirt echo the graceful fluidity of 18th-century French design. The chair is upholstered in a high-quality jacquard or tapestry fabric woven with a traditional floral and foliate motif. A dusty rose or plum-mauve ground is complemented by soft sage and pale olive accents, creating a warm, sophisticated palette. The loose, reversible seat cushion adds comfort and practicality, enhancing the deep, enveloping form that defines a true Bergère. Charming, comfortable, and classically French, this armchair brings a touch of timeless elegance to any living room, bedroom, or sitting area.
