Each chair features the classic enveloping Louis XV silhouette: a tall, serpentine cartouche-shaped back, open scrolled arms with carved knuckles, and a deep, generous, overstuffed seat that invites you to linger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artistry is in the frame: masterfully hand-carved from solid walnut, the entire skeleton is alive with scrolling acanthus leaves, rocaille shells, and foliate scrollwork. As seen in your exquisite macro details, the frame retains charming remnants of its original gilt highlighting over the walnut, with a beautifully distressed, time-worn patina that speaks of authentic age and European craftsmanship. The cabriole legs terminate in elegant scrolled feet, each centered with carved acanthus and scroll details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth back and seat are upholstered in a rich cognac-colored leather in a vintage pull-up finish, with a soft luster and natural grain that mimics the finest aged French leather. The upholstery is meticulously finished with a border of oversized, antique-brass nailheads that trace the entire perimeter, emphasizing the shapely curves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncredibly comfortable and grand in scale - perfect flanking a fireplace, as host chairs in a dining room, or as statement lounge chairs in a library, boutique hotel, or living room.\u003c\/p\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: 40 in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eWidth: 29 in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6 _cb16180a\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eDepth: 31 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\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eSet of 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\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\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eMaterials and Techniques:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eWood, Leather\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\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\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003ePeriod:\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"_1862016c _57a9be25\" href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/furniture\/seating\/dining-room-chairs\/period\/early-20th-century\/\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eMid-20th Century\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_51822ac7 _3681075f\"\u003eCondition:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_49da11ae _3681075f\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_fe6d36b6\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"_57a9be25\"\u003eWear consistent with age and use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Melissa Levinson Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51552737820978,"sku":null,"price":3800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/4321\/6690\/files\/f_51317032_1786039604780_bg_processed.jpg?v=1786123361","url":"https:\/\/melissalevinson.com\/products\/pair-of-vintage-french-louis-xv-cognac-leather-fauteuils","provider":"Melissa Levinson Antiques ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
