EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the exquisite beauty and craftsmanship of a set of six Louis XV chaises dating back to circa 1760. Created by Jean Avisse, a prominent figure in the 18th-century furniture industry, each chair stands at an impressive 97x63.5x58.5 cm and is made from giltwood and silk damask.
The intricate details on these chairs are truly remarkable - with channeled backs carved with floral cresting, acanthus leaf embellishments on the uprights, and cabriole legs adorned with roses and foliate feet. The shaped seat-rail is centered by three flowerheads flanked by delicate flowering branches, adding a touch of elegance to the overall design.
Upholstered in a luxurious pink and cream silk damask fabric, these chairs exude opulence and sophistication. Three of them even bear the stamp 'I AVISSE', further highlighting their provenance and quality.
A true testament to French craftsmanship from the 18th century, this set of Louis XV chaises is not just furniture - it's a work of art that brings history and beauty into any space lucky enough to showcase them.
