A Directoire Mahogany Bergère Attributed to Georges Jacob, its curved back and padded armrests with finely carved baluster-shaped supports raised on turned front legs and sabre back legs. With a spurious Jacob stamp to back rail. The term "Directoire" refers to a historical period following the French Revolution (1789) and preceding the First Empire when Napoleon reigned, but also to a style of furniture and decoration covering a longer period from 1789 to 1804. It is characterized by the production of furniture with simplified forms and ornaments, inspired by antique decorations. The profound social and political upheavals that marked this period had a direct impact on the production of Directoire furniture. The stripping down of furniture pieces, which had begun in the 1780s under the influence of Greek art, was accentuated during this period. The abolition of guilds by the revolutionaries also forced manufacturers in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine to simplify shapes and materials. Elegant and graceful, the furniture is generally small-scale. They retain the Louis XVI structure. The Directoire style adopts clean shapes, straight lines, simple curves, flat surfaces and right angles. Lines accentuate geometric shapes inspired by Antiquity. A typical trait is the pronounced rolled-over back, similar to a scroll illustrated in our bergere, evocative of the klismos chair. Only the more luxurious pieces of furniture use mahogany, an exotic and expensive wood. Despite his humble origins, Georges Jacob rose to become one of the most renowned menuisiers of his day. Unlike many artisans who joined their fathers or brothers in the middle-class family trade of furniture making, Jacob was from a peasant family and moved to Paris at sixteen to begin his career. He apprenticed in a joinery workshop and eventually became a master in 1765. He developed a reputation for producing inventive designs for chairs, beds, and screens carved with such motifs as twisted ribbons, guilloches, beading, and fluting. Jacob's reputation grew quickly, eventually spreading outside France; the future King George IV of England, Gustavus III of Sweden, and several German princes...

A beautifully tailored and exceptionally inviting pair of French Louis XVI-style bergère armchairs dating to the 1950s, distinguished by their elegant cream-painted frames, generous proportions, and sophisticated coral-pink patterned upholstery. Combining the architectural refinement of French neoclassical furniture with the comfort expected of a mid-20th-century lounge chair, this handsome pair offers an appealing balance of formality, softness, and everyday usability. Each chair features a beautifully shaped cream-painted wooden frame, executed in the restrained classical vocabulary associated with the Louis XVI period. The pale painted finish has a soft, gently aged appearance that complements the upholstery particularly well. Subtle variations and signs of age within the cream surface give the frames character without detracting from their overall presentation. The chairs appear to be in good overall condition, retaining an attractive and well-cared-for appearance. The tall, slightly reclined rectangular backs provide an elegant architectural foundation for the chairs. Their frames flow gracefully into upholstered sides and gently shaped arms, each fitted with a comfortable padded armrest. The lower rails are subtly shaped, while the chairs stand on slender, tapered and fluted legs, one of the defining features of Louis XVI-inspired seating. Carved details at the tops of the legs and around the frame introduce just enough ornamentation to enrich the design without making it overly elaborate. Particularly noteworthy is the quality of the tailored upholstery treatment. The chairs are covered in a luxurious coral, salmon, and rose-pink textile woven with a large-scale scrolling paisley pattern. The tonal design has a softly lustrous quality, with lighter pink and silvery highlights emerging against the deeper coral ground as the fabric catches the light. Each chair is furnished with a substantial loose seat cushion as well as an additional loose back cushion, creating a layered, exceptionally comfortable seating arrangement. The extra back cushions are generously filled and carefully tailored, softening the more formal Louis XVI framework and making these chairs particularly suitable for relaxed seating. Coordinating upholstery continues across the inside and outside arms, seat deck, back, and padded armrests, resulting in a polished and thoughtfully finished appearance from multiple angles. The upholstery appears to be in very good condition, presenting beautifully in the photographs with strong color and an attractive overall appearance. As with any vintage upholstered furniture...
