About the Item
An exceptional pair of 20th century French Louis XVI style painted and parcel gilt side chairs, meticulously handcrafted in Paris, circa 1920s. A testament to timeless elegance, these chairs boast exquisite classical styling and unparalleled hand carved mastery throughout their entire framework. Imbued with the opulence of the neoclassical era, the pair is adorned with captivating gilt carvings of acanthus leaves and laurel wreaths, reminiscent of the grandeur of ancient Greece and Rome. The medallion-shaped backrests feature intricate ribbon and reed motifs, while the cresting proudly showcases the royal symbols of Louis XVI – a quiver of arrows crossed with a flambeau, evoking themes of life, truth, and the pursuit of justice. Every detail has been expertly crafted, from the boldly carved acanthus leaves gracing the stiles to the guilloché adorned rounded seat rails. Raised on twisted tapering legs with stop-fluted accents and delicate laurel leaf rosettes, these chairs exude sophistication from every angle. The original upholstery remains intact, while the original gilt finish and paint have acquired a rich patina over the decades, aging to perfection. Robust yet gracefully proportioned, these chairs are perfect for flanking a chest of drawers, buffet, or library table, adding a touch of Parisian refinement to any space.
