This pair of 19th-century side chairs dates from around 1870 in the French Rococo Revival style, constructed from warm brown walnut with upholstered inserts. Each chair features a cartouche-shaped backrest topped with a hand-carved shell and flowers along a channelled wooden edge, complemented by matching floral carving beneath the seat. The framework stands on four cabriole legs decorated with fluting and further carving, finished with brass castors on the front feet. The padded seats and curved backrests are covered in a beige patterned check fabric, secured by rows of individual nailhead trim around the borders. Minor surface marks appear on the polished woodwork in line with age and traditional use. Measuring 83.8 cm high, 50.8 cm wide, and 50.8 cm deep, these seating pieces suit placement in a bedroom or a dressing room to provide comfortable periodic seating alongside a dressing table or desk. The neutral tones of the fabric integrate smoothly into traditional interiors, while the sturdy proportions support daily practical use.

FAQs

Maintain the walnut timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying a clear wax polish annually, while vacuuming the woven upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment.

Place a pair of carved side chairs on either side of a contemporary console table or incorporate them as accent seating in a dressing room to introduce textural warmth and historical contrast.

Look for hand-carving irregularities, hand-cut joinery beneath the upholstery frame, genuine timber patination on handling areas, and period brass castors on cabriole legs.

Artisans primarily crafted these chairs using dense hardwoods like walnut, employing traditional mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved decorative motifs, and horsehair padding secured with brass studs.

Louis XV style side chairs from the 19th century are characterised by asymmetric rococo ornamentation, sinuous cabriole legs, and curved cartouche back frames, reflecting a revival of 18th-century French decorative arts.
