Description

Pair of Early 20th Century French Louis XV Style Painted Cane Armchairs circa 1910

Dimensions: H: 82cm (32.3") W: 62cm (24.4") D: 53cm (20.9")

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 (16.1").

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.

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.
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 XV style furniture, originating in 18th-century France, features organic curves, asymmetrical lines, cabriole legs, and delicate hand-carved decorative accents such as floral patterns and C-scrolls.

These chairs were typically constructed using carved hardwoods such as beech or walnut, finished with hand-applied paint or gilding, and fitted with hand-woven rattan cane for the backrests and seats.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut joinery, layered paint finishes with natural age distress, traditional hand-caning techniques, and subtle hand-carved floral detailing on the aprons and knees.

A pair of painted cane armchairs can be positioned opposite a modern sofa to create a layered aesthetic, or placed in a bedroom bay window with natural linen cushions to add textual contrast.

Dust the frame gently with a dry microfibre cloth and clean the cane weave using a soft brush; keep the furniture away from direct heat sources to prevent the cane from drying out and cracking.
