This exquisite set of three Louis XIII-style side chairs dates back to the 17th century and reflects the timeless elegance and craftsmanship of the French Baroque period. Each chair is handcrafted from solid walnut, showcasing a beautiful patina that has developed over centuries, with charming traces of wear and character consistent with age and use.

The chairs feature intricately carved legs and stretchers in the classic os de mouton (sheep bone) form, a hallmark of the Louis XIII style. The legs are connected by gracefully curved serpentine stretchers, providing both structural integrity and visual rhythm. The front stretcher is particularly sculptural, with bold curves that echo the dynamism of the Baroque aesthetic.
Recently reupholstered in a rich, neutral-toned velvet, the seats and backs offer a soft, updated contrast to the rustic warmth of the wood. The arched backs are elegantly proportioned and finished with large nailhead trim, enhancing their historical authenticity and decorative appeal.
These chairs are not only decorative pieces but also functional and sturdy, ideal for a dining room, study, or refined living space. A rare and refined ensemble, perfect for collectors and interior designers seeking authenticity, sophistication, and character
