This impressive pair of salon armchairs dates from the 1900 period in the Louis XV style. The sturdy frames are constructed from beech with a crackle finish cream paint, complemented by carved gilt highlights and a scallop shell crest. Each chair has padded armrests, a serpentine seat rail, and is raised on short cabriole legs. The upholstery consists of dusty pink velvet on the backrests, arm pads, and seats. Visible signs of age include distressing and wear to the painted finish. These comfortable chairs measure 99 cm high, 74 cm wide, and 53 cm deep. They suit a drawing room, bedroom, or reading corner in a home today, providing generous seating while adding a touch of classic French chateau style to the interior.

FAQs

A Louis XV salon armchair, often termed a fauteuil, typically features an exposed carved wooden frame, cabriole legs, padded armrests, and Rococo motifs such as shells and acanthus leaves, designed for conversational seating in formal reception rooms.

These armchairs were traditionally crafted from hardwoods such as beech or walnut, finished with painted gesso and hand-gilding, and upholstered using natural horsehair padding alongside woven velvets or silks.

Authentic period pieces or faithful reproductions exhibit hand-carved decorative details, asymmetric Rococo scrolls, serpentine seat rails, and subtle structural jointing methods like mortise and tenon pegged frames.

A pair of painted fauteuils can introduce texture and historic elegance when positioned opposite a contemporary sofa, placed within a bedroom bay window, or flanking a grand fireplace.

Dust the painted frame regularly with a soft dry cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may lift gesso or gilding, and clean velvet upholstery using a low-suction vacuum attachment or specialised textile brush.
