Constructed from dark brown mahogany, cane, fabric, and brass, the piece presents a polished timber frame complemented by woven cane side panels and patterned upholstery featuring green, black, and orange tones.

Practical proportions measure 92 cm high, 65 cm wide, and 69 cm deep, offering comfortable seating dimensions for domestic interiors. Suitable for placement in a study, library, or living room, the armchair functions as a reading seat or accent chair. Daily use suits traditional sitting rooms or home offices, accommodating relaxed posture while maintaining period character within a domestic setting.

FAQs

A Bergere armchair is an enclosed upholstered lounge chair with an exposed timber frame, originating in eighteenth-century France and widely produced across Europe throughout the nineteenth century.

These chairs are constructed using solid hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring hand-woven cane side panels, brass castors, and textile cushions.

Authentic period examples demonstrate traditional mortise and tenon joinery, original brass castors, fluted or turned timber legs, and hand-woven double-skin cane panels.

Place the armchair beside a minimalist side table or floor lamp to complement the detailed woodwork and cane texture, creating a balanced focal point in a modern space.

Dust the timber and cane regularly with a soft bristle brush, avoid placing the frame near direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, and apply natural beeswax polish periodically.
