Infuse your interior with refined European elegance through this vintage French Louis XVI style settee, a beautifully handcrafted piece originating from France. Rooted in 18th-century neoclassical design, this settee captures the timeless symmetry, delicacy, and ornamentation that define the Louis XVI aesthetic while remaining perfectly suited for modern living.

The frame is constructed from solid beech wood, prized for its strength and smooth grain, and has been professionally refinished in a soft antique cream tone. The finish is further enhanced with hand-painted pastel floral accents, subtly applied to evoke the charm of authentic French antiques. Throughout the frame, finely carved details—including floral motifs, fluted legs, and graceful proportions—demonstrate skilled artisanal craftsmanship and classical balance.

The seat and backrest are upholstered in a luxurious blue silk-cotton damask, featuring an elegant cream floral pattern that adds depth and visual richness. A contrasting dotted motif fabric has been used on the back and side panels, providing refined detail from every viewing angle and elevating the overall presentation. The upholstery has been newly completed, paired with all-new padding to ensure both comfort and long-term durability.

This versatile settee offers a timeless silhouette ideal for:

Entryways and foyers
Living rooms and formal salons
Bedrooms, nurseries, or boudoirs
Boutique, hospitality, or editorial interiors
Its graceful scale allows it to function beautifully as both decorative seating and a functional accent piece.
