Old meets new in this chic pair of petite Louis XVI style arm chairs with a bleached wood finish. We love the restrained elegance of the Louis XVI style, and these chairs feature many of the details characteristic of the style--oval back, lovely carved detail at the die joins (where the base of seat meet the legs) and tapered, fluted legs. We reupholstered the chairs in a fresh Cowtan and Tout ticking stripe and Samuel and Sons gimp, giving these very traditional chairs a fresh, modern look. The chairs have had their original finished stripped away, giving a rustic appearance to these formally styled fauteuils. This is the finish that everyone copies! They are petite chairs.
