Tall, sculptural, and highly decorative, this matching pair brings theatrical European elegance to a grand entryway, salon, formal living room, gallery, boutique hotel, or collector’s interior.
The frames are crafted from solid beechwood and carved with impressive depth and movement. Decorative details include roses, acanthus leaves, scrolling foliage, floral flourishes, and bold Baroque-inspired curves. The antique gold finish highlights every carved contour and gives the chairs a warm, palace-like character without appearing overly modern or bright.
The upholstery has been newly renewed in rich red tufted velvet, creating a striking contrast against the gold frame. New supportive padding provides comfort while preserving the tall, throne-like silhouette.
This pair has a unique mirrored configuration: one chair has a left arm and the other has a right arm. They are designed to face each other symmetrically, but they can also be styled separately as dramatic accent or throne-style chairs.
