Carved Louis XV Chair

An authentic 19th-century Louis XV armchair, this piece captures the elegance and fluidity of French Rococo design. The solid walnut frame is finely carved with floral motifs at the crest, apron, and knees, all softened by a time-worn patina that highlights its age and character. Graceful cabriole legs and gently scrolled arms complete its classic silhouette. The chair is newly upholstered in a hand-block-printed fabric on heavyweight, washed linen—a pattern that blends historic technique with a muted, natural palette. A contrast in texture and tone comes through the use of Kerry Joyce velvet on the outer back, arms, and welt. This is a well-proportioned and structurally sound antique, ideal for use as an accent chair where its craftsmanship and textile details can be fully appreciated.
