The set includes eight side chairs and two armchairs, making it especially well suited to a formal dining room or large dining table. The chairs feature the characteristic flowing lines and carved ornamentation of the Louis XV tradition, including a handsome shell-and-scroll crest, shaped frames, a carved apron, and elegantly curved legs terminating in carved feet.
The warm, rich walnut finish highlights the substantial carving and gives the chairs a sophisticated traditional character, while the cane backs lend an airy quality to the overall design.
The seats are upholstered in a vintage striped fabric in warm mustard, cream, and olive tones. The upholstery has an appealing period character and complements the walnut beautifully.
A complete set of ten Karges dining chairs is an uncommon find and offers considerable flexibility for entertaining. The chairs would work beautifully in a traditional, French-inspired, transitional, or collected interior.
