{"product_id":"vintage-french-louis-xvi-style-walnut-fauteuil-armchair","title":"Vintage French Louis XVI Style Walnut Fauteuil Armchair","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis vintage walnut fauteuil armchair, executed in the French Louis XVI manner, presents the neoclassical open-arm chair form at its most complete and well-articulated. The carved detail throughout is the chair’s defining quality: pinecone finials crown the crest rail at both corners; a foliate motif is carved into the top rail; fluted column stiles frame the upholstered back panel on either side; rosette medallions appear at the arm supports and at the corners of the apron; and the reeded tapered legs terminate in turned toupie feet. No element of the Louis XVI decorative program has been simplified — this is the form as it was intended, executed in warm dark walnut with evident craft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe chair has been recovered in natural cream linen — a fabric that is simultaneously historically appropriate and very much aligned with current interior sensibilities. Back panel, seat cushion, and padded open armrests are all unified in the same material, giving the chair a composed and quietly luxurious presence. The combination of dark walnut carving and natural linen texture is one of the most enduring pairings in French interior design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis fauteuil functions beautifully in a wide range of settings: as a living room accent chair, a bedroom reading chair, a study or library chair, or a formal statement piece beside a fireplace or console. It suits traditional, French country, maximalist, transitional, and contemporary interiors and pairs naturally with antiques, European furniture, natural textiles, and the warm, layered aesthetic that defines the best of current interior design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 26w 25d 35.5h 25ah 20sh\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: age appropriate wear, vintage finish worn, scuffs\/scratches, edge wear, discoloration, see photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipping: FREE LOCAL PICKUP FROM 08610 NJ- SHIPPING cost is a PLACEHOLDER and varies based on location- blanketwrap shipping quotes can be provided - please send zip code BEFORE purchase for more information!
