Originating during the early nineteenth century under Napoleon Bonaparte, French Empire style seating is defined by Neoclassical symmetry, dark hardwoods, bold architectural silhouettes, and brass or gilded bronze ornamentation.

These chairs were primarily constructed from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, adorned with cast and chased gilded bronze or brass mounts, and upholstered in luxurious fabrics such as silk damask, velvet, or leather.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, heavy timber frames, hand-chased bronze mounts fixed with small slotted screws, and visible hand-planing marks on the underside of the seat rails.

Pair the armchair with a clean-lined contemporary sofa or place it beside a minimalist writing desk to allow the architectural frame and metallic mounts to serve as a high-contrast accent.

Dust the wood frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and keep upholstery away from direct sunlight. Ormolu mounts should only be cleaned using a dry, soft-bristled brush to avoid stripping the original gilded surface patina.
