About the Item

Pair of 1940s Swedish Napoleon III–style armchairs, upholstered in rich brick-red (brique) velvet jacquard fabric. These elegant lounge chairs feature a beautifully sculpted backrest with deep tufting and soft, rounded armrests that create a refined yet inviting silhouette typical of the Napoleon III revival style. The chairs are constructed with traditional webbing and spring suspension, both of which are in good condition and provide excellent seating comfort and support. The upholstery shows a luxurious velvet texture with a subtle jacquard pattern that catches the light beautifully, enhancing the depth and warmth of the color. The wooden legs are gently tapered and finished in a dark tone, complementing the rich fabric. Overall, this pair is in very good vintage condition, with only light, age-appropriate wear consistent with careful use. They are sturdy, comfortable, and visually striking. A rare and characterful set, ideal for a living room, reading corner, bedroom, boutique hotel, or any interior that calls for elegant 1940s Scandinavian charm with classic European influence.
