About

This elegant pair of antique French side chairs was crafted in walnut circa 1870 and reflects the refined curves and lightness associated with the Louis XV style. The frames feature softly contoured backs, serpentine aprons, and gracefully cabriole legs terminating in delicate scrolled feet, all showcasing a warm, rich walnut patina developed over time. The chairs retain their upholstered backs and seats, newly covered in a Provençal-inspired textile decorated with pastoral scenes, flowering garlands, and floral sprays in soft tones of rose, blue, and green against a light ground. The fabric evokes classic French country aesthetics while complementing the movement and proportions of the carved walnut frames. Generously shaped seats and supportive backs provide both visual charm and comfortable seating, making the pair suitable for use as side chairs, accent chairs, or occasional seating in a bedroom, living room, or refined country interior. Both chairs are in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with sturdy construction, sound joinery, and upholstery presenting beautifully. This antique pair offers a harmonious blend of elegance, comfort, and decorative appeal, ideal for interiors inspired by French country, Louis XV, or Provençal style. Dimensions: 23”W x 20”D x 40.5”H Seat Height: 17.5”H
