Set of 10 Mid-19th C. French Louis Philippe Walnut Dining Chairs in Yellow Linen
A set of ten mid-19th-century French Louis Philippe walnut dining chairs, sourced in Provence, France. Crafted in walnut, each chair features a gently curved open back with a broad horizontal crest rail and a shaped central splat. The restrained silhouette is characteristic of the Louis Philippe period, with subtly curved front legs, straight rear legs, and clean seat rails. The simplicity of the design highlights the warm tone and natural grain of the walnut. The chairs have been structurally revised, ensuring each is solid and stable, and the frames have been cleaned and polished with wax while preserving their naturally aged patina. The seats have been newly upholstered in yellow linen, creating a fresh contrast against the warm walnut. A substantial and versatile set of ten, well suited for a large dining table.
