8 Empire-style Chairs In The Jacob Style

A rare set of 8 Empire-style chairs in the
style of Jacob Desmelter, the originals of which are located at the Château de Fontainebleau.
They are made of solid beech, lacquered in a cream-white finish, with carvings accented by gilding. 
They are upholstered in an orange-red velvet fabric with floral motifs on both sides of the backrests and on the seats.
Both the seats and backrests are in very good upholstery condition and are very comfortable thanks to their interior padding and springs. 
These chairs were crafted in Parisian workshops by cabinetmakers from the Faubourg Saint-Antoine.
The advantage of these chairs is their stability and sturdiness: the frames do not wobble. 
They are very comfortable; you can sit in them for several hours without experiencing muscle pain (in your back).
Another distinctive feature is that they have a wider seat than standard chairs, making them ideal for tall and larger individuals.
