About the Item

Elegant French Napoleon III armchairs dating from the late 19th century. Featuring ebonized wood frames, tufted backs, decorative passementerie, and older patterned upholstery with attractive age-related character. Price is for one chair. Two chairs available. Sold individually. This elegant French Napoleon III armchair was crafted circa 1880 and retains the distinctive silhouette associated with the period. The chair features an ebonized wooden frame with gracefully shaped arms, a deeply tufted backrest, and decorative passementerie trimming that enhances its rich decorative appearance. The upholstery appears to be an older replacement, likely dating from the early 20th century, and displays a woven floral and striped jacquard pattern in soft pastel tones with contrasting burgundy details. The combination of the patterned upholstery, tassel fringe, and traditional upholstery techniques gives the chair considerable charm and character. The frame remains sturdy and structurally sound. The upholstery shows expected wear, minor fading, scattered stains, and age-related imperfections consistent with decades of use, all of which contribute to its authentic antique appearance. A decorative and comfortable example of French Napoleon III furniture, suitable for both traditional and eclectic interiors. Sold individually. Condition Good antique condition with age-appropriate wear. Upholstery appears to be an older replacement and shows minor wear, fading, scattered stains, and imperfections consistent with age and use. Structurally sound and ready for use.
