Made in France in the twentieth century, this pair of Louis XIII style armchairs is constructed in solid walnut, with four legs joined by carved stretchers and high, flat backs. The Louis XIII style, a revival of the heavier seventeenth-century manner, is seen in the turned legs, carved stretchers, and upright backs of the chairs. Solid walnut gives the frames warmth and weight. As a matched pair, the armchairs suit use as accent or occasional seating in a reception room, library, or hall, or at the head of a table. Their high backs and carved detail give them a strong, architectural presence. Suited to both traditional and plainer modern interiors, the chairs serve as both functional and decorative seats. As a pair of Louis XIII style walnut armchairs, they offer comfortable seating together with the robust, carved character of the style, providing matched chairs with period presence.
