Jacob Frères, Pair Of Cabinet Armchairs, Consulate Period.
Artist: Jacob Frères ( 1796 - 1803 )
Superb pair of large cabinet armchairs in carved mahogany, mahogany veneer, and black-patinated beechwood.
The backs feature a wide openwork crest rail finely carved with a trellis motif.
The armrests are carved with lion heads, the front legs are in a hocked (jarret) form, and the rear legs are sabre-shaped.
The openwork composition of the back is strictly identical to that of a set supplied by Jacob Frères, unstamped, in 1800 for the Tuileries Palace, later installed in 1807 at Fontainebleau in a dining room of the Princes’ apartment.
J.-P. Samoyault, Mobilier Français Consulat et Empire, Paris, 2009, p. 66, fig. 115.
Each armchair bears, beneath the seat, a leather label with the inventory number “433”.
Green leather upholstery of fine quality, finished with a zigzag leather braid.
Very good condition, with restorations consistent with age and use.
Attributed to Jacob Frères: 1796–1803
Empire–Consulate period

Height: 93 cm
