Fancy French Oak Dining Chairs



King Louis XV of France was the king of all kings with his taste for the fine things of life. His desire and passions for the beautiful brought forth some of the world's most magnificent furniture. Artists were not kept to straight harsh lines, but brought soft curves with a Rococo influence to their art pieces. This set of six dining chairs are a superior example of this time period. A rare find with four cabriole legs instead of the usual two front, and two straight back, these chairs have ornate scrolled carvings on the knees of the legs. Look at the beautiful cutwork and carving of the crown of these chairs. The rich upholstery is an elegant velvet brocade of soft mauve and cream colors with a hint of gold to add to the richness of these chairs. The nail head trim gives the finishing touches to the fine upholstery. The detail work is quite extrordinary here as well on the overall piece. A simply elegant carving is found on each of the aprons of these chairs, which only adds more beauty. These chairs feature lathe-turn strechers that contribute to the magnificent quality of these chairs. This large set of six chairs would be perfect to seat your guests or family at elegant dinner parties. Elegant enough for formal occasion, but strong enough for everyday use, these chairs will be a magnificent addition to your home. These chairs were built and meant for a king!! Imported from Belgium.
