FAQs

A fauteuil is a style of French open armchair featuring an exposed wooden frame, upholstered back and seat, and open padded armrests. Originating during the 17th and 18th centuries, these chairs became signature pieces of French Rococo and Louis XV style furniture.

Late 19th-century French armchairs typically featured solid hardwood frames, such as beech or walnut, carved with foliate motifs. Frames were frequently painted or gilded and upholstered using traditional horsehair padding, webbed seat foundations, and brass stud trim.

Authentic 19th-century painted armchairs display natural wear on hand-carved details, layered paint finishes with age-appropriate distressing, and traditional joinery such as dowel and mortise-and-tenon joints beneath the upholstery line.

Pairing classic French fauteuils with clean-lined modern sofas or placing them as a balanced pair opposite a fireplace creates a refined contrast. The painted frame and textured upholstery complement neutral palettes and layered textiles.

Keep painted wooden chairs away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking and paint flaking. Vacuum fabric upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment and dust carved wooden frames using a dry lint-free cloth.
