A pair of French Louis XVI Chairs

A fine pair of 19th century French Louis XVI style chairs, the parcel gilt walnut frames decorated with hand-carved 'lambs' tongue' mouldings, the crests decorated with haut-relief carved crossed 'quiver and torch' allegories and with acanthus leaf and knotted-ribbon motifs. Standing on tapering and fluted legs. Please note the excellent walnut patination. Area of Paris, circa 1880.

Please note: this pair of chairs was originally part of a set, which sells separately. It includes the pair of 'fauteuil' armchairs #16365, the 'canape' sofa #16366 and the wing-back armchair #13920.

Photos taken indoors, and photos taken in outdoor lighting conditions show different tones of fabric, although the fabric is identical.
