Also Antique Furniture has dated these French Louis Xiv Chairs to the 19th Century.
A handsome pair of late nineteenth-century French walnut chairs in the Louis XIV style.
The walnut frames stand on characteristic os de mouton (mutton bone) legs, united by shaped and scrolled stretchers, reflecting the bold Baroque forms associated with seventeenth-century French furniture. The warm walnut colour contrasts attractively with the tapestry upholstery..
Comfortable and decorative, these versatile chairs would work well as occasional seating, hall chairs or bedroom chairs.
