Pair of 20th Century French Louis Xv Style Painted Cane Armchairs

1900 - 1920
Description

A pair of early 20th-century French Louis XV-style bergère armchairs, dating back to 1910, showcases the fine artistry and elegance of early 20th-century design. The armchairs feature a painted cane back and seat, both beautifully worn with age, framed by a softly curved silhouette that embodies the refined characteristics of the Louis XV period. The arms flow smoothly into the backrest, contributing to the chair's graceful form and offering a subtle contrast to the neutral wooden frame. The chair seat height is 41cm.

The wood is finished with an antiqued, distressed paint treatment, giving the chairs a vintage look that enhances their timeless appeal. The front seat rails are adorned with intricate floral carvings, a hallmark of the Rococo style, and the chairs rest on cabriole legs, which further highlight their delicate yet ornamental design. These petite armchairs are perfect for adding a touch of French sophistication to any salon, boudoir, or space looking to capture the elegance and charm of early 20th-century French furniture.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in 18th-century France, Louis XV style furniture is characteristically rococo, featuring asymmetrical curves, serpentine lines, cabriole legs, and delicate floral or foliate carvings.

These chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames, such as beech or walnut, combined with hand-woven natural rattan or cane mesh for the seat and back panels.

Look for carved detail work on the crest rail and apron, cabriole legs with scrolled feet, and signs of age such as natural wear to the painted surface and woven cane patina.

Pair these curved armchairs alongside a sleek modern sofa or position them in a light-filled bedroom corner to create an elegant contrast between classic curves and contemporary lines.

Maintain cane seating by gently cleaning with a damp cloth to prevent drying out, avoid direct sunlight, and dust painted timber frames with a soft dry brush.
