Vintage 18th Century French Coiffure Etching

Chairish

$716

This enchanting French hand-colored engraving celebrates the whimsical and elaborate millinery of the late 18th century. Originally titled "Coiffures pour Diners de Têtes," this plate illustrates a delightful array of historicist hairstyles and hats, ranging from the regal "Tzarine" to the theatrical "Polichinelle." The delicate linework and soft watercolor tints capture the romantic spirit of Parisian high fashion, making it a quintessential piece of Rococo-inspired décor. It is professionally housed in an ornate gilded wood frame, featuring a stunning feathered marble mat border that perfectly echoes the vibrant colors of the plumes and ribbons within the artwork. Measuring 16.75" wide, 0.75" deep, and 20.25" tall, this framed print is ideally scaled for an elegant powder room, a boutique dressing area, or a gallery wall dedicated to historical costume. The artwork is in great vintage condition, displaying a warm, authentic patina on the paper that underscores its age and heritage. The gold-leaf frame exhibits minor, age-appropriate scuffs that serve as desirable character, ensuring the piece feels like a storied find. Enhance your interior with this charming window into Parisian elegance and add this unique piece to your collection today.
