2 Louis XVI period chairs in solid wood and grey fabric.

Pair of Louis XVI style chairs or from the Directoire period. These are chairs known as cathedral or with an openwork backrest, following the codes of the Louis XVI style: the front legs are tapered and fluted, typical of neoclassicism, the backrest is carved with twisted or fluted motifs, and the seat is covered with a silky light grey/blue fabric with a passementerie finish. The wood of the seats is sound, the patina is lovely, and the seat fabric shows no major tears. The modern upholstery underneath the chairs indicates that they have been reupholstered or reinforced recently. In good condition and sturdy. Price displayed for the lot of 2. Width 43, depth 44, height 46/84.
