Louis XVI Tapestry Fauteils C 1840

A fine pair of mid 19th century Louis XVI restored tapestry fauteils from a matching carved salon suite consisting of a pair of fauteuils, settee and kneeler.   Fine floral and acanthus leaf scroll carvings with classic fluted legs and carved pearled and leaf decorative banding.  Conserved original horsehair upholstery saving the original tapestry seats, backs and arms.  Original gilt finish retained, with some losses as to be expected.  Entire frame professionally restored and structure strengthened. Provenance:  French origin, likely obtained during the Grand Tour.  Property of an old downtown New York family, the original owners until acquired by Clary & Co. Antiques.
