Pair of Period French Louis XVI Giltwood Aubusson Tapestry Armchairs or Fauteuils

Upholstered in fine Aubusson tapestry fabric, this pair of early 19th century French Louis XVI matching armchairs or fauteuils is stunning. The carved giltwood furniture nicely frames the finely woven Aubusson tapestry upholstery playfully illustrated with bird scenes and floral images. The high level of craftsmanship displayed in this set would have been affordable for aristocracy only, and examples of this furniture are on view in many palace museums throughout Europe.  DETAILS Country: France  Condition: Very Good Year: Early 19th C Dimensions: H 38.5” x H 39” x H seat 17” x H arm 25” x W 26” x D 22”
