Directoire-style Mahogany Dining Set, Oval Table And 6 Chairs

Directoire-Style Mahogany Dining Set, Oval Table and 6 Chairs

An elegant Directoire-style dining set, dating from the late 19th or early 20th century.

The set consists of an oval mahogany table and six matching chairs, featuring a refined neoclassical aesthetic inspired by the Directoire and Louis XVI styles.

The table stands out for its beautiful oval top in warm tones, its polished finish, and its harmonious proportions. It rests on slender, tapered legs, finished with brass feet and small casters, lending it both decorative elegance and period character.

The table features an extension mechanism that allows it to be extended from the center. However, the additional extension leaf is not included.

The six matching chairs feature slightly curved backs, simple and balanced lines, and seats upholstered in striped fabric. Their elegant and understated design perfectly reflects the Directoire style and allows the set to blend seamlessly into both a classic interior and a more eclectic decor.

This dining set shows patina, surface marks, and signs of wear consistent with its age. Nevertheless, it remains a set that is at once decorative, functional, and harmonious—ideal for a refined dining room, a gallery-style interior, or a reception area.
