About the Item

1940s Swedish Napoleon III–style armchair, upholstered in rich brick-red (brique) velvet jacquard fabric. This elegant lounge chair 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 chair is 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 chair is in very good vintage condition, with only light, age-appropriate wear consistent with careful use. It is sturdy, comfortable, and visually striking. A rare and characterful chair, ideal for a living room, reading corner, bedroom, boutique hotel, or any interior that calls for elegant 1940s Scandinavian charm with classic European influence.
