Details
A beautifully proportioned Louis XV Style Bergère featuring a serpentine frame of hand-carved timber with elegant cabriole legs and scrolling arms. Freshly upholstered by our in-house upholsterer in a creamy alabaster linen, the chair boasts a deep feather-filled cushion trimmed in a delicate brush fringe, adding texture and romance to its refined silhouette. Sublime details like double self piping elevate this chair even further. The generous seat and padded armrests invite comfort, while the curvaceous frame offers a sculptural presence from every angle. An ideal piece for a bedroom, reading nook or sitting room, this bergère brings the ease and warmth of 18th-century French design into a modern interior with quiet sophistication. These chairs are heavenly as a set to create a strong presence, however, are equally beautiful standing solo.
Listing is for one chair, with two available.

A Note on Character & Age
Each vintage and antique piece in our collection carries its own history - a quiet record of time, craftsmanship, and use. These are not new items; their gentle imperfections, subtle marks, and rich patina are part of what make them unique and beautiful.
We see these characteristics not as flaws, but as evidence of a life well-lived - the depth and texture that only age can bestow. Minor variations from the images may occur, reflecting each piece’s singular story. Unless otherwise stated, all sales are final.
