Masterfully crafted from rich mahogany, these pieces embody the neoclassical grandeur synonymous with the era of Napoleon.
Key Features & Craftsmanship Exquisite Detailing: Each chair is adorned with striking Egyptian-inspired female mask terminals on the armrests and top corners, finished with gilt-bronze (ormolu) accents that highlight the regal silhouette.
Regal Upholstery: Newly dressed in a luxurious shimmering green silk damask, featuring a classic neoclassical pattern of laurel wreaths and rosettes. Structural Elegance: The chairs feature tall, square backs and elegant sabret legs in the rear, while the front legs are supported by traditional block feet with subtle gilt detailing.
