Crafted in Provence, France circa 1880, each comfortable fauteuil sits on cabriole legs decorated with acanthus leaves at the shoulder, and ending with escargot feet over an X-form stretcher. Both armchairs have a tall and arched back, a wide and deep seat flanked with open curved armrests decorated with acanthus leaf motifs, over a scalloped apron decorated with hand carved shell and foliate motif on all four sides. Both antique fauteuils are upholstered with a floral and vine decor fabric in the beige and rust palette. The large provincial armchairs are in excellent condition with a rich walnut patina throughout. Use this elegant pair of heavily carved armchairs to decorate a study or office. Measures: 28.5" W x 25" D x 45.75" H.
