Description
This is a gorgeous pair of antique French Country / Louis XV-style ladder back rush seat armchairs crafted in solid oak, featuring elegant cabriole legs, carved shell crests, and classic ladderback silhouettes.
The handwoven rush seats add warmth and authenticity, with a desirable aged patina throughout the frames that highlights the grain and craftsmanship.
Sturdy and comfortable with nicely shaped arms and stretchers for support, these work perfectly as end-of-table host chairs, desk chairs, or statement accent seating.
Good antique condition, with expected wear and some age to the rush seats consistent with use.
