Suite of Eight French Louis XVI-Style Painted Dining Chairs, Early 20th Century

A suite of eight French Louis XVI-style side chairs dating from the early 20th century, retaining a beautifully weathered painted finish in soft ivory. Each chair features a square upholstered back and broad seat covered in an easy-care faux leather in a soft gray with a subtle silver sheen. The restrained neoclassical frames are enriched with carved corner rosettes, molded seat rails, and tapered, fluted legs, while neat rows of nailhead trim elegantly frame the seats and backs. The beautifully timeworn painted surface, with scattered rubs and paint losses, lends the suite warmth and character. The upholstery remains in very good condition with only light signs of use, and all eight chairs are solid, stable, and ready for everyday use. 

Designed to be enjoyed every day, this suite of eight lends a dining room an immediate sense of harmony and understated sophistication. The soft ivory frames and silvery gray upholstery brighten the space and pair effortlessly with a wide variety of dining tables and interior styles, they offer the timeless appeal of French design with the comfort and practicality expected of modern seating.
