FAQs

Louis XV style giltwood armchairs, often termed fauteuils, feature carved wooden frames covered in gold leaf, characterised by fluid curves, cabriole legs, and floral or rocaille ornamentation originating in 18th-century France.

These pieces are crafted from carved hardwoods such as beechwood or walnut, coated with gesso, and finished with layers of gold leaf using water or oil gilding before being upholstered.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved joinery, red bole ceramic clay showing through worn gilding, classical mortise and tenon construction, and natural oxidisation on frame joints.

Pair structured gilded seats with modern minimalist sofas or neutral architectural backdrops to create a high-contrast focal point that highlights the sculptural frame.

Dust frames lightly using a dry, soft brush or microfiber cloth, avoiding water, liquid polishes, or solvents that dissolve gesso and detach delicate gold leaf.
