Each chair features an intricately carved Phoenix rising motif on the splat, symbolizing rebirth, longevity, and prestige, supported by scrolling acanthus carvings and classic ball-and-claw cabriole legs.

Crafted from what appears to be solid mahogany, the wood displays a warm tone with beautiful depth and definition in the grain. The curves on the serpentine arms, the feathered carving detail, and the dimensional relief in the crest rail all point toward quality craftsmanship rather than machine-press carving.

The set includes 6 side chairs + 2 armchairs, offering a complete dining suite — rare to find as a full group in this style. Upholstery is clean and neutral with an elegant pattern that suits both traditional and grand eclectic interiors.

Perfect for collectors of Chippendale revival pieces, luxury dining spaces, classic estates, and refined statement interiors.
