Description

Antique Louis XV Style Mahogany Bergère Armchair – Custom Upholstery & Nailhead Trim

Elegant antique Louis XV–style bergère armchair crafted from solid mahogany with finely carved floral and scroll motifs throughout the frame. This piece captures the graceful Rococo influence of 18th-century French design, featuring curved cabriole legs joined by an X-form stretcher and a scalloped apron adorned with detailed carving.

The chair has been restored and fitted with custom brocade upholstery in rust, olive, and gold tones, displaying a paisley and stripe motif reminiscent of period textiles. A row of brass nailhead trim outlines the seat and back, emphasizing its craftsmanship and symmetry. Deeply cushioned and comfortably proportioned, it reflects the classic bergère à la reine form—a timeless symbol of comfort and refinement.

A sophisticated statement piece ideal for traditional interiors, libraries, or reading nooks, blending historical charm with enduring elegance.

Condition:

Good restored condition. The solid mahogany frame is sturdy with light wear consistent with age. Upholstery and nailhead trim are later custom replacements, executed with quality craftsmanship. Minor surface wear visible along lower edges; structurally sound and ready for use.

Dimensions:

Overall: 40" H × 28" W × 28" D
Seat: 19" H × 22" W × 22" D
