Here is a top quality pair of early antique French walnut Fauteuil armchairs, circa 1850, in good original condition. The chairs are constructed of solid walnut and feature arched high-backs, straight seat fronts on turned bobbin legs, which are united by turned “H” stretchers. Below the seat, there is a decorative floral carved stretcher at the front of the chair. The armchairs feature good quality down swept shaped arms, fine quality acanthus leaf carvings to the shoulders, which terminate in scroll ends incorporating further carved acanthus leaves. The shaped arms are secured by ring-turned vertical supports. The chairs boast the original wool and cotton-upholstered tapestries incorporating top quality hardwearing burgundy pink, gold and fawn colours, incorporating a floral scene with peacocks. The sprung seats are extremely comfortable to sit on they do not sag. The upholstery is finished with brass studwork braiding. The undersides of the chairs feature backing material.

The chairs feature a dark rich brown walnut colour. As they boast the original polish, they have a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.

The chairs would look superb in a variety of rooms including the bedroom, living room, dining room or hallway. They would certainly grace any home and are a great investment as they are extremely functional. So don't miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.

Condition Report:
These chairs are in good original condition. The chairs retain the original tapestry upholstery therefore there is some minor fading to the upholstery. One of the chair seats and the front of the upright section has an old repair to the tapestry (see detailed photos). We have tried to keep the chairs as original as possible, which is why we have not re-upholstered them. If you would like the chairs re-upholstered, please contact us for a quote. The sprung seats are extremely comfortable to sit on they do not sag. The chair frames and arms are in good solid condition. The chairs sit firm on the ground and do not wobble. These chairs are well constructed, solid in joint and are ready to use.

If you live in one of the areas where we do not offer free delivery, please contact us for a delivery quote before purchasing the item. Delivery will be made by our specialised antique furniture delivery service, or in some cases we will use a courier service for distant deliveries.

Delivery times are usually 1-4 weeks depending on location we aim to deliver the majority of items within 2 weeks. All items are professionally packaged and fully insured in transit, therefore, we can assure you, your items will be securely protected in transit and arrive safely with you.

Once you have purchased an item, we will contact you by email and/or telephone and provide you with a provisional delivery date, in order for you to confirm if it is suitable for you. Once you have confirmed you can accept delivery on the provisional delivery date, we will book the delivery in with our shippers and it then becomes a confirmed delivery date.

We will also provide you with our shippers' contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It's helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.

In order to be able to offer you free delivery, it is based on a 1-man delivery only. For any large items that require 2 people to lift the item, we ask that you are available at the time of delivery to be able to give our shipper a lift off the van and into your house with the item. If you are not able to lift items yourself, we ask that you have someone on hand at the time of delivery to assist our shipper with lifting the item.

A free 14-day “no quibble” returns policy (from the date you receive the item) is available if you are not happy with this item.

We will collect returns using our own specialist antique furniture delivery company. We will not accept returns via a courier service (due to experience of damaged items in transit).
