A louis xvi period salon suite comprising a sofa and a pair of bergère armchairs in gray-green lacquered wood (with highlights) with gilt moldings and ornaments.
the sofa features a concave arched back surmounted by two finials in the form of fluted, gilt vases; the fluted, tapered legs and corner rosettes are characteristic of the louis xvi style. The bergère armchairs have rectangular backs of the same design. The entire suite is upholstered in a cream-colored toile de jouy fabric printed in burgundy red with chinoiserie motifs (figures in oriental dress, butterflies, birds, scrolls) and a wavy garland with cartouches; the bergère armchairs are adorned with matching cushions with red and white twisted passementerie trim.
workshop report: the upholstery shows significant stains and soiling requiring cleaning. The wood shows wear and flaking of the lacquer and gilding; consolidation of the gilding is recommended.
sofa dimensions: h. 94 cm (145 cm total) – w. 180 cm – d. 80 cm – seat height 50 cm. Armchair dimensions: h. 86 cm – w. 58 cm – d. 47 cm – seat height 47 cm.
