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

Louis XVI style armchairs, originating in the late 18th century and reproduced around 1900, feature Neoclassical influences including oval or medallion backs, straight fluted legs, and carved floral or ribbon crestings.

These chairs were typically constructed from carved hardwoods such as beech, finished with painted gesso coats in pale shades, and upholstered with woven fabrics like silk, damask, or striped velvet.

Look for authentic wear along the paint finish revealing underlying wood or gesso layers, traditional joinery methods, natural ageing on the armrests, and hand-tied upholstery springing.

Position a pair of painted armchairs flanking a console table or fireplace to introduce symmetry, or place one in a primary bedroom corner to contrast structured contemporary architecture with curvilinear lines.

Dust the painted frame regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, avoid water or chemical solvents on the gesso layer, and clean fabric upholstery using a soft brush attachment.
