EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Circular Chair Seat, created by Philippe de Lasalle around 1780, is a stunning example of 18th century European design. Originally from Lyon, France, this chair seat showcases the rich artistic heritage of the continent during this period. The circular design, with its intricate floral motifs, is both elegant and captivating. The seat is adorned with a satin weave fabric, featuring a colorful brocade pattern. The fabric is made with a silk warp and a float-faced 71 satin weave, with supplementary brocading wefts tied in twill interlacings. The result is a textile that shines with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, adding to the overall beauty of the chair seat. The floral motifs, which include roses, tulips, and other blossoms, are expertly woven into the fabric, creating a visual feast for the eyes. The use of silk adds an air of luxury and sophistication to the piece, making it a prized possession for any art enthusiast or collector. This chair seat is not only a work of art in its own right, but also a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of Philippe de Lasalle and the artisans of his time. It is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Europe during the eighteenth century, and a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating our cultural past. Today, this Circular Chair Seat can be found in the prestigious collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. Whether admired in person or in reproduction, this chair seat is a true masterpiece of 18th century European design.
