This 18th-century French Turner's chair is a masterful example of Baroque craftsmanship and elegance. Turner's chairs were created by skilled professional wood turners to showcase their exceptional skill level to prospective customers. Originating from Normandy, France, it stands as a rare and remarkable piece of furniture from the region.
Constructed with the most elaborate turned oak spindles on the back, arms, legs, and stretchers, this armchair showcases the extraordinary skill of its maker. Brass nail heads stud some of the turned pieces, adding a luxurious touch to the chair's design. Stylized flowers crafted from brass nail heads adorn the end of the pommels, while brass six-pointed stars delicately decorate the corners of the frame and the legs, adding unique and captivating details.
This magnificent armchair is not only a testament to the craftsmanship of its maker but also a stunning and timeless piece of furniture that will add sophistication and beauty to any interior space. less
