A set of four French beech side chairs in the os de mouton taste, late 19th century, the enduring Louis XIII form named for its sculptural 'mutton bone' legs and stretchers. Standing 44 inches tall, the chairs have unusual vertical presence for side chairs, with turned frames in warm beech that display crisp, confident shaping throughout. Sets of four make versatile dining chairs for smaller tables, elegant flanking chairs in a hall, or occasional seating distributed through a house. The strong silhouette of os de mouton seating moves easily between period rooms and contemporary settings, where its sculptural framework reads as design rather than antiquarianism. The frames are solid, with wear consistent with age and use.
