The solid rosewood frame is distinguished by its graceful lines and meticulous details, evident in the cabriole front legs and the medallion backrest, richly carved with decorative motifs that reflect the high quality of its craftsmanship.

The open sides and scrolled armrests lend the design a sense of lightness and visual balance, while the recently updated upholstery is made of a fine Tiffany-style fabric with a rich, textured texture. The background is a pale blue/turquoise, woven with ivory threads and thin gold filaments that create luminous reflections. The weave is irregular and deliberately wavy, typical of high-end decorative fabrics, with small knots and chromatic variations that enhance the artisanal character and add a lively yet elegant touch, enhancing the historical character of the pieces.

Perfect for an elegant living room or as a striking decorative accent in an entryway or study, these armchairs seamlessly combine comfort, history, and aesthetics, offering a refined and timeless seating experience. See less
