We have had the frames polished, and they have been re-upholstered in a cream cotton fabric. The condition is excellent for their age, with some minor wear and patina remaining on the frames here and there.

FAQs

French salon armchairs originated during the 17th and 18th centuries in elite Parisian salons, evolving through periods such as Louis XV and Louis XVI to emphasise both comfort and refined ornamentation.

These chairs are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like walnut or beech, featuring hand-carved details, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and horsehair or cotton stuffing beneath modern upholstery.

Authenticity is assessed through timber ageing, traditional hand-carved tool marks, handmade joinery without modern fasteners, and the characteristic patina accumulated on the wood over centuries.

They can be paired with clean-lined contemporary sofas or minimalist decor to create a balanced eclectic aesthetic that highlights the classical proportions and craftsmanship.

Preservation involves keeping the timber nourished with microcrystalline wax, avoiding direct sunlight to protect the wood and fabric, and dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
