The cream upholstery and the dark carved frames show the clean lines of the style. The Louis XVI style, named for the king who reigned from 1774 to 1792, turned away from Rococo curves toward straight, tapered lines and a renewed admiration for classical antiquity. French cabinetmakers returned to its restrained elegance again and again in the 19th century. Signs of age are consistent with its years and part of its quiet appeal. Placed in a living room, library or bedroom, it offers comfort with real presence and sits happily alongside both antique and modern pieces.
