Description :
This French armchair, crafted in solid walnut during the 19th century, is a refined example of the enduring Louis XV style. With its graceful curves, intricate carving, and richly upholstered seat and back, it embodies the elegance and decorative sensibility that made this style one of the most admired in French furniture history.
The walnut frame is carved with scrolling acanthus leaves and floral motifs, particularly evident on the arms, the seat rail, and the cabriole legs. Its construction includes an X-shaped stretcher with a central finial, providing both stability and an additional decorative flourish. The warm tone and natural grain of the walnut enhance the sculptural quality of the carving, giving the piece a depth and richness that only this noble wood can provide.
The tall, slightly arched back and generous proportions reflect the comfort and grandeur associated with the Louis XV tradition, while the restrained elegance of the carving suggests a 19th-century interpretation of the Rococo aesthetic. The chair is upholstered in a floral tapestry, featuring large-scale blossoms in soft shades of cream, rose, green, and ochre against a warm-toned background. Finished with decorative nailhead trim, the upholstery highlights the silhouette of the frame and adds a touch of refinement.
This 19th-century walnut fauteuil in Louis XV style combines historical charm with timeless appeal. Both decorative and functional, it would serve beautifully as a focal point in a salon, library, or refined interior, offering a perfect blend of comfort, craftsmanship, and French artistry.
