Crafted with finely carved walnut frames, each chair features fluted legs, floral rosettes, and intricate detailing that reflects the timeless craftsmanship of the Louis XVI period. The backs and seats are upholstered in their original hand-woven Aubusson tapestry, richly decorated with floral motifs in soft, faded hues of rose, cream, and green. Though showing signs of age and wear consistent with their history, including fraying on the arms and seats, the chairs retain a remarkable authenticity that enhances their antique character. The fabric is clearly shown damaged from time.

Perfect for collectors, decorators, or anyone seeking to add historic charm to an interior, these fauteuils exemplify the sophistication of late 19th-century French furniture. Whether placed in a formal living room, a refined bedroom, or as accent seating in a study, they bring a sense of European grandeur. These chairs work seamlessly in antique, Hollywood Regency, or even eclectic mid-century modern design schemes.
