A refined pair of Louis XVI–style painted fauteuils, featuring elegant neoclassical lines and beautifully carved details throughout. Each chair is finished in a soft, time-worn palette of pale cream and celadon green, perfectly complementing the period-inspired yellow damask upholstery. The shaped backs, scroll arms, and tapered fluted legs reflect the restrained sophistication characteristic of late-18th-century French design, here interpreted in a later reproduction of exceptional decorative quality.
These chairs exhibit graceful proportions and a light, airy silhouette, making them ideal as accent seating in a living room, bedroom, or entry. Their provenance adds further interest and credibility for collectors and decorators alike.
