Artisan-crafted in France, its compact proportions and refined neoclassical detailing make it a versatile statement piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
The solid beechwood frame displays characteristic Louis XVI elements, including fluted legs, balanced architectural lines and delicately carved ornamentation. It has been professionally refinished in a warm antique-gold finish, emphasizing the carved details while giving the piece a softly aged and sophisticated appearance.
The upholstery combines several complementary textures. The backrest is finished in deep blue velvet with classic button tufting, creating visual depth and comfortable support. The seat features an elegant floral silk-cotton blend fabric combined with coordinating blue velvet, adding pattern and decorative contrast to the otherwise rich blue palette.
The reverse is smoothly upholstered for a polished appearance from different viewing angles. The seating has also been newly padded, providing comfortable and supportive everyday use.
