Pair of Louis XVI Style Giltwood Armchairs, circa 1920
A pair of Louis XVI style giltwood armchairs, French, circa 1920, made when Parisian workshops were producing some of the finest neoclassical revival seating of the 20th century. The frames follow the classic Louis XVI vocabulary: straight tapered and fluted legs, rectangular backs, and finely molded rails, all brightened by gilding that has mellowed to an attractive softness. Gilded pairs of this era offer the look of 18th century seating with sturdier frames and more forgiving prices, which keeps them in steady demand for living rooms, bedrooms, and dressing rooms. They take fabric beautifully, from antique textiles to modern velvets. The gilt surface shows gentle wear consistent with age, adding warmth rather than detracting.
