Lot 1108: * Pair of Directoire-Period Style Armchairs (Cabriolet Charret)

Pair of Directoire-Period Style Armchairs (Cabriolet Charret) This elegant pair of Directoire-style armchairs, designed in the refined Cabriolet Charret manner, represents the sophisticated transition between Louis XVI classicism and Empire austerity. Meticulously handcrafted as high-quality reproductions, each chair features a solid wood frame with iconic turned and tapered fluted front legs and a rectangular backrest culminating in a distinctive scroll-top crest. The backrests are detailed with traditional hand-woven cane infill, while the seats are constructed with authentic coil springs and horsehair stuffing, upholstered in a refined green fabric. Every chair measures 87 cm in height, 56 cm in width, and 48 cm in depth (34″ x 22″ x 18″), offering a perfect balance of structural clarity and vintage charm for a distinguished interior.
