A French Louis XVI style walnut bergère à oreilles circa 1870 with carved décor and fluted legs. Transport yourself to the charm of 19th-century French décor with this Louis XVI style walnut wingback bergère chair, circa 1870. The hue of walnut and intricate carved décor effortlessly combine to create a piece that is as much a conversation piece as it is a comfortable seat.
The bergère's upper rail flaunts an elegant carving of thin diamond motifs, subtly accented with grapes and ribbons, showcasing the attention to detail characteristic of Louis XVI style. Petite beads add an element of sophistication to this piece, further accentuating its distinct design.
The section below the ears is adorned with delicate flowers cascading down, an enchanting representation of classic French craftsmanship. The seat is accompanied by a cushion, while the back, partial arms, and seat are upholstered in a flamestitch fabric, its vintage charm evident despite its fair condition.
The bergère's skirt echoes the carved motifs from the top, harmoniously tying together the design elements. Carved rosettes accent the knees, while four fluted legs, embellished with petite bead motifs, provide a sturdy and stylish base.
Add an exquisite touch of French elegance to your living space with this Louis XVI style walnut wingback chair. Its artful design, combined with its comfortable dimensions (the seat is 18"H x 21.75"D), makes it a perfect blend of aesthetics and functionality, a testament to the richness of French craftsmanship of the late 1800s. less
