An elegant 19th century French bergère in the Louis XVI style, finely carved and finished in worn gilt with beautiful age and patina. The frame is richly detailed with scrolling arms, acanthus leaves, and fluted legs — all hallmarks of classic French craftsmanship.
Upholstered in a striking raspberry red silk damask with delicate floral motifs, the chair retains its original tufted backrest and a generously cushioned feather loose seat. The rear panel is finished in velvet of the same deep tone. The fabric shows some gentle wear consistent with age, adding character and authenticity.
A timeless statement piece — perfect for a reading corner, bedroom, or layered into a maximalist living space.
This piece was formerly sold through Bonhams Auction House, one of the world’s most respected international auctioneers.
