A Pair Of Regence Style Giltwood Fauteuils A La Reine, 19th Century

Pair of large ceremonial armchairs with carved wooden and gilded backrest, old polychrome decoration with bouquets of flowers and characters. Tapestry wear, small accidents and lack of gilding.

The quality of the assemblages and the virtuosity of the sculpture are here at the service of a scholarly architecture magnified by the work of the gilding painter and upholsterer. This pair of armchairs is a masterpiece of composition and sculpture, they illustrate as well what was the Parisian style for export, where one wanted to show to excess the know-how and the French maestria.
