Original Louis XV Suite From The Early 19th Century In Carved Wood, France

A rare and beautifully cohesive early‑19th‑century French seating suite. This original Louis XV ensemble; comprising two side chairs, two armchairs, and one sofa, embodies the lyrical elegance and sculptural refinement that define the Rococo tradition. Sets of this scale and authenticity seldom survive intact, making this collection an exceptional opportunity for collectors, decorators, and restoration enthusiasts.

Each piece displays the characteristic fluidity of the Louis XV style: sweeping curves, cabriole legs, and exuberant carved ornamentation that animates the frames with floral motifs, scrolls, and acanthus leaves. The wood retains a wonderfully aged patina, with traces of its original cream‑and‑gold finish softening into a romantic, time‑worn surface. Even in their unrestored state, the pieces radiate the charm and sophistication of French craftsmanship at its most expressive.

The sofa, with its generous triple‑seat form, anchors the suite with grandeur, while the armchairs offer sculptural presence and comfort through their open backs and refined proportions. The two side chairs complete the composition, echoing the same decorative vocabulary and creating a harmonious visual rhythm across the set.

As the upholstery has been removed, the entire suite awaits restoration, an invitation to shape its next chapter. The future owner may choose historically faithful fabrics such as silk damask or brocade, or introduce contemporary textiles for a striking dialogue between past and present. Upholstery can be completed independently by the client or arranged in collaboration with us, ensuring a result that respects both the heritage of the pieces and the aesthetic vision of their new home.

Once restored, this Louis XV suite will reclaim its full splendour: a sculptural centrepiece for a salon, a refined anchor for a classical interior, or a dramatic statement in an eclectic contemporary space.
