More About This Item:
Straight from the halls of Versailles (or at least inspired by them), this late 20th-century Louis XVI-style bergère chair channels the regal opulence of 18th-century French design. Its finely carved wood frame—painted in a creamy ivory hue—pairs beautifully with green striped upholstery and a subtle bullion fringe for added drama.

The curved lines, fluted legs, and exposed carved details echo the formality and balance of the Louis XVI era while still offering comfort that fits right into modern living. Whether used as a vanity chair in a primary suite, a reading perch in a sunlit corner, or a showstopper in a formal sitting room, this designer side chair brings elevated charm and a distinctly European flair.
It’s the kind of piece that feels like it has a story—like it was borrowed from the salon of Marie Antoinette’s lesser-known (but incredibly stylish) cousin. While the maker is unknown, the quality is high.

Design Style:
Rooted in the neoclassical ideals of the late 1700s, Louis XVI-style furniture is known for its balance, symmetry, and refined ornamentation. This bergère’s gently curved arms, tapered legs, and painted finish are all signature features. The striped fabric adds a dose of formality while the verdant palette gives it a fresh twist for today's interiors—ideal for fans of French Provincial, traditional, or grandmillennial aesthetics.

Use this dramatic chair as a statement armchair, entryway accent piece, or as part of a mismatched pair in a formal living room for symmetry. Thanks to its timeless silhouette, this piece works just as well with gilded mirrors and chandeliers as it does with layered linen drapery and distressed wood floors. See less
