Pair of French Louis XV Style Rococo Revival Bergere Arm Chairs Parlor Suite Set, probably c. 1870-90 Item # 120010TUT22 Visit us at www.sillafineantiques.com for a full slideshow of pictures as well as a large selection of other fine furniture! This is a gorgeous pair of Rococo Revival bergere arm chairs of the Louis XV taste from the last quarter of the 19th Century, each with a brilliant gold re-gilded finish. They carefully replicate each other in overall design while maintaining distinct variations in every single carving, adding visual interest and complexity. The smaller chair was crafted with perfect proportions to still be a full size chair despite it's diminutive stature, though that being said, both chairs do have slightly short seat heights at 14-15" versus the typical 17-19" seat height. The crest is a wonderful display of the carver's skill, each with bold shell formations interlaced with foliage that flows out along the molded rail, each arm curving slightly outward with rounded hand holds over cabriole arm supports, wrapping somewhat around the comfortable floral upholstered seat. The chair apron nearly mirrors the crest, again a fantastic shell carving highlighted at the focal point; the chair rests over four cyma-curve legs terminating in sharp scrolled french toes. This is a magnificent pair of chairs for any formal sitting room, fully functional and comfortable for regular use in the home. They are a perfect pair for any serious decorator or anyone passionate about the Louis XV style, adding warmth and beauty without dominating a room. In outstanding visual condition, this pair is a classical design, one that never never goes out of fashion, and well cared for they will last through several generations. Measurements: (smaller) 27" wide x 22-23" deep x 26 5/8" high; 14" high to seat (larger) 30" wide x 25" deep x 31 1/2" high; 15" high to seat   « Less

American Hoopback Windsor Side Chair c. 1810-20 with a later refinish Item # 120009QOE16 Woods: Cherry (Seat and Side Stretcher bars) Maple (Legs and  More »

American Hoopback Windsor Side Chair c. 1810-20 with a later refinish Item # 120009QOE16 Woods: Cherry (Seat and Side Stretcher bars) Maple (Legs and Mid-Stretcher) Hickory (Crest Rail and Spindles) Visit us at www.sillafineantiques.com for a full slideshow of pictures as well as a large selection of other fine furniture! This is a fine original Hoopback Windsor with a high polish finish and a very nice overall presentation. Interestingly, this chair features significant use of Cherry woods, an uncommon wood considering all of these surfaces would have been painted. The solid board shaped plank seat makes excellent use of the ribbed grains of the cherry, highlighting them down the center of the dished seat. The crest is a steam bent rail of hickory that tenons through the seat, uniquely shaped with a certain lean, and while at first glance it appears that the hoop back has twisted from shrinking and expanding of grains over time, it appears to have been designed like this. In measuring the spindles, the left spindles are clearly higher than the right spindles, giving additional lift to the hoop and the appearance of twist. One can speculate about why it was crafted like this, but in any event it lends to some visual interest. The spindles are smooth tapering shafts of hickory that join through the crest rail with a split wedge through-tenon. The chair rests over four plain shaped maple legs, framed in an H-form stretcher with cherry sides and maple mid-stretcher. This is a fun little windsor for anyone looking for a nice, clean and visually interesting piece in strong, sturdy and fully functional condition.

This is a very rich pair of French arm chairs, upholstered in a wonderful pink and cream fabric with floral and foliate along the cream ground. They have wonderful work throughout, starting with the richly adorned crest featuring a twisting tied ribbon, pierced and flowing along the crest, flanked by pyramidical finials on either shoulder. The frame is molded, flowing down into upholstered arms that curl in reeded hand holds over cyma-curved arm supports that join the apron and flow directly into the turned and tapered reeded legs, a turned baluster on the top and turned rings above the stump toes. In simply outstanding condition with a distressed finish that has been regilded at some point during the 20th century, this is a pair of chairs that you can use functionally with your family on a regular basis. They are well formed and crafted and are an absolute visual delight that bring life to any formal setting. Measurements: 25 1/2" wide x 27" deep x 38 1/2" high; cushion is 17 1/2" high over the ground, measuring 20 1/2" deep front to back, 17 1/4" wide between arms at the tightest spot See something you can't live without?

Very Fine Pair of Carved Mahogany Rococo Revival Arm Chairs Circa 1875-90, probably England Item # 120108PET27 Visit us at www.sillafineantiques.com for a full slideshow  More »

Very Fine Pair of Carved Mahogany Rococo Revival Arm Chairs Circa 1875-90, probably England Item # 120108PET27 Visit us at www.sillafineantiques.com for a full slideshow of pictures as well as a large selection of other fine furniture! This is one of the finest pair of Rococo Revival chairs we've had the honor of carrying. They are incredibly unique and so striking visually, with an overall square profile that lends a modern flair to the design. The carving execution on the chairs is simply second to none, every aspect of the chairs carefully and tastefully carved with perfect cuts. The crest and arm rails feature repeating oak-leaf carved designs that wrap over the edges of the rail, two ovular oversized acorn finials capping each corner. The arms are supported with a wonderful gallery of swollen-tapered spindles, each carved delicately with a spun-rope formation. These flank a comfortable upholstered seat of striped cream and burgundy velvet, stuffed over the frame and in overall excellent condition with only minor rust-color spotting (see the slideshow for closeups) along the edges. The medallion back is truly a work of art, an intensely carved solid panel of mahogany, the swirling acanthus formations of Louis XV and Chippendale clearly influencing the overall theme. The square arms round out in the rounded handholds, carved with a fan-motif along the sides and join the frame with a curved arm support, carved with a different variation on the oak-leaf design over stop-fluted square legs that change shape beneath the apron into a swollen-taper leg with spun-rope carvings over wonderful lion paw feet. The lion paws have seen some life, each of them repaired and fixed, lacking a bit of finish luster and still with loss. The back legs mirror the front, but terminate in plain ball feet. This pair is truly a statement, exceptional in every way and executed with a crispness and depth of carving that is breathtaking. With well preserved red mahogany color, clearly protected from excessive sunlight exposure, covered in a rich polish to bring out the deep patina, these immediately catch your eye in a magnificent way. They would be an outstanding pair of library chairs, placed side by side flanked by a pair of matching tables, or used almost as a settee in a small living room side by side. They set the pace for any room they become a part of, and will simply be a treasure wherever they are in your home. Measurements: 27" wide x 22" deep x 33 1/2" high to finials 19" high to seat; seat area dimensions 19 1/2" deep x 23 1/2" wide See something you can't live without? Let us know!
