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.
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.

Louis XVI style salon chairs are characterised by Neoclassical design elements, including straight structural lines, tapered fluted legs, and classical motifs derived from Greco-Roman antiquity. They were designed as formal seating for reception rooms in eighteenth and nineteenth-century European residences.

Traditional construction utilised carved hardwood frameworks, typically carved beech or oak, covered with a layer of gesso before gold leaf gilding was applied. Seats were upholstered over webbed wooden frames using natural fibres like horsehair and linen.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved joinery, pegged mortise and tenon joints, and natural wear patterns on the gilding where wood or reddish bole clay shows through. Modern reproductions often exhibit machine-turned elements, uniform spray finishes, and modern metal fasteners.

These formal side chairs function effectively as accent seating placed on either side of a console table, within a hallway, or flanking a fireplace. Pairing gilded Neoclassical frames with contemporary minimalist architecture creates a balanced visual contrast.

Cleaning should be limited to gentle dusting with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or feather duster without chemical sprays or water, which can dissolve water-gilded gesso. Maintain a stable ambient humidity to prevent the underlying timber from shrinking and flaking the gilding.
