About

This elegant pair of antique French Louis XVI side chairs was crafted in France circa 1920 from carved beech wood. Each chair features a classic oval cane back framed by finely molded rails, surmounted by a restrained floral crest, all reflecting the refined neoclassical lines associated with the Louis XVI style. The seats are fitted with removable upholstered cushions, allowing for versatility and ease of use. The frames retain their original painted finish with a softly aged patina, highlighting the carved detailing along the seat rails and tapered, fluted legs. The caning is intact and presents well, contributing to the chairs’ light, airy silhouette. The seat cushions are upholstered in a floral-patterned fabric and show visible discoloration and staining consistent with age and prior use, which may be addressed at the buyer’s discretion. These antique French chairs are ideal for use as side chairs in a bedroom, dressing area, living room, or as vanity seating. The pair is in good condition commensurate with age and use. Stain on one of the seats. See last image. Dimensions: 15″W x 15.5″D x 35″H Seat Height: 19″
