A wonderful pair of medallion-backed Louis XVI style ‘Fauteuil Cabriolet’ armchairs, in white lacquered wood. Armrests are partially upholstered and reeded, and each chair is raised on four elegant, fluted legs with carved rosettes at the crest. The striped velvet upholstery complements the delightfully aged patina of the wood, with its subtle colour palette and pretty floral motif, and is enclosed all around with a pinhead trim. A supremely comfortable and charming pair of chairs.
