Pair of Italian Empire Armchairs in Mahogany with White Velvet Upholstery, Genoa 19th Century
Elegant pair of 19th-century Italian Empire armchairs from Genoa, crafted in solid mahogany with refined neoclassical detailing. Each chair features arched legs ending in stylized feline feet — a hallmark of Empire design — and gracefully curved armrests supported by turned baluster columns. The frames retain a rich, warm patina that enhances the sculptural quality of the form. Newly upholstered in soft white velvet, the seats and backs create a striking contrast against the dark wood, bringing lightness and balance to the design. These armchairs reflect the Genoese interpretation of Empire style: stately yet restrained, formal yet inviting. Perfect as statement pieces in a living room, salon, or bedroom setting, they exemplify the enduring harmony between classical inspiration and Italian craftsmanship.
