The leather is beautifully aged with a natural craquelure and patina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat truly sets this piece apart is its magnificent frame. Four exuberantly carved cabriole legs display masterful Baroque scrollwork, acanthus leaves, and rocaille cartouches hand-carved from solid wood in a warm, honey-walnut finish. Each leg sweeps dramatically into a scrolled toe, showcasing the skill of the artisan carver. As seen in the detailed close-ups, the wood retains a deep, antiqued finish that highlights every chisel mark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe entire seat is framed by a continuous row of oversized, faceted, hammered brass nailheads - not standard small tacks, but large, hand-hammered medallion studs with a textured, jewel-like finish that adds immense character and old-world luxury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"_9415d43e\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eDimensions:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eHeight: 20 in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eWidth: 40 in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eDepth: 20 in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eSeat Height: 20 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eSold As:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eSet of 1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eStyle:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003eLouis XV\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eMaterials and Techniques:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003eLeather,  Wood\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003ePlace of Origin:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eDate of Manufacture:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eLate-20th Century\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"_9ab89a9d\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eCondition:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cbutton type=\"button\" class=\"_1862016c _57a9be25\"\u003eDistressed\u003c\/button\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eWear consistent with age and use.
