Set of 8 Early 20th Century French Louis XVI Style Mahogany Lyre Back Dining Chairs

A set of eight early 20th-century French Louis XVI style dining chairs in mahogany, sourced in Provence, France. The set has been structurally revised, refinished, and newly upholstered in blue and white striped performance fabric with coordinating blue gimp trim. Distinguished by their open rectangular backs, each chair features a carved lyre motif with delicate vertical strings, a classical decorative element associated with the Louis XVI period. The mahogany frames feature molded edges, carved floral rosettes at the seat corners, and slender, fluted, tapering legs. The rich, dark finish highlights the natural grain of the mahogany and the architectural character of the chairs. The generously padded seats offer comfortable proportions, while the tailored striped upholstery provides a contemporary contrast to the classical mahogany frames.
