Large Armchair

– Louis-Philippe period, 19th century
An elegant, wide parlor chair made of solid mahogany and mahogany veneer, a French piece from the Louis-Philippe period (mid-19th century), inspired by English Neoclassicism.
Its beautiful, generous, and slender proportions (95 cm high by 54 cm wide) give it a striking presence and great comfort. The tall, straight, and slightly sloped backrest features four slender cylindrical vertical rails set within rounded crossbars.
The wide, deep seat features a simple mahogany-veneered band and rests at the front on two turned baluster legs with molded rings, and at the back on two saber legs. All four legs are finished with small brass feet.
The traditional upholstery is covered in almond green/celadon green velvet, secured with a studded trim of patinated brass around the edge of the seat band. The chair comes with a matching removable back cushion, tufted with five buttons and secured to the frame by four fabric loops (removable, allowing the chair to be displayed with or without the cushion).Dimensions:• Total height: 95 cm• Seat height: 42 cm• Width: 54 cm• Depth: 49 cm It is in very good condition and well-preserved
. The mahogany frame is sound, stable, and features a beautiful, warm, and even patina. The green velvet is clean and in good overall condition (with slight, normal signs of wear related to the direction of the velvet’s nap).Would you now like me to provide you with a recommended price estimate on Proantic for this Louis-Philippe chair?
