Lot 64: * Inspired by the opulent designs of F

Inspired by the opulent designs of F. H. G. Jacob-Desmalter, the celebrated Parisian furniture maker of the early 19th century, this ebonised fauteuil is a true statement of French Empire style. It features a gracefully moulded, curved toprail above a padded and scooped back. The distinctive swan-carved arms frame a plush, stuffed leather seat, all resting on elegant panelled sabre front legs. The ebonised finish enhances its sophisticated silhouette, making it a luxurious and historically rich piece. It measures 105 cm in height, 71 cm in width, and 58 cm in depth.
