A vision of "faded grandeur," this piece features a graceful, curved barrel back adorned with airy cane webbing and a central carved trophy splat. The frame is raised on classic fluted tapered legs and embellished with delicate floral cresting. The original gold gilt finish has weathered over time to reveal the white gesso and wood beneath, creating a stunningly authentic, heavy patina that defines the Shabby Chic and French Brocante aesthetic.

Perfectly scaled to anchor a bedroom corner, serve as a lavish vanity seat, or act as a sculptural accent in a hallway, this chair offers both beauty and history.
Measurements: 33.25″ Width × 14.5″ Seat Depth × 32.5″ Height × 16″ Seat Height.
The chair is in distressed vintage condition. The caning is intact, but the frame exhibits significant chipping, losses to the gilt, and surface wear throughout. This heavy weathering is a desirable characteristic for collectors seeking the genuine charm of an antique-style piece with a storied past. See less
