Description

This is a very high quality and rare pair of chairs with matching stool. What sets this apart is the stool can attach to one of the chairs with metal hooks. The fact everything is still all complete and the set still remains together is why it is a rare find. It is a perfect addition to a living room or lounge and you don't have to use the stool with the chairs as it does separate.

Measurements Height 90cm Width 76cm Depth 76cm Depth of seat 49cm Height of seat 45cm

Footstool - H43cm L84cm D68cm

(On my website) If you would like these chairs and stool upholstered please click yes in the upholstery drop down menu. These would require 15 metres of material (5m per chair). You can supply your own or please get in touch and we will send you the list of fabric companies we work with.

All my armchairs have been fully restored, springs, legs, padding etc so these will stand the test of time even if used everyday.

Price includes UK mainland delivery

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

The Napoleon III style, spanning the Second French Empire period, is characterised by eclectic revivals, deep button tufting, heavy upholstery, and comfort-focused silhouettes.

These pieces typically feature solid hardwood frames, traditional hand-tied coil springs, horsehair or wool stuffing, and high-quality velvet or damask upholstery.

Authenticity is determined by examining frame construction methods, traditional hand-stitching, webbing, aged brass castors, and period-appropriate wood patination.

They provide textural contrast when paired with minimalist architecture, modern lighting, and sleek neutral textiles in a living room or reading corner.

Preservation requires professional dry cleaning for delicate textiles, regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, and keeping the pieces out of direct sunlight.
