This set of eight 20th-century French mutton-leg side chairs features a classic design inspired by Louis XIII aesthetics. Crafted from walnut, a wood prized for its strength and rich, warm tones, the chairs highlight the intricate carving of the mutton-leg (os de mouton) bases, a hallmark of traditional French furniture craftsmanship.
The chairs are upholstered in a luxurious blue velvet fabric, accented with a decorative nailhead trim, providing a striking contrast to the natural wood frame. The slightly arched backs and generously padded seats ensure comfort while maintaining a refined, elegant appearance.
Perfect for use in a dining room or as occasional seating, these chairs bring a timeless sophistication and durability to any interior, making them a versatile and stylish addition to your home.
