This pair of Louis XV style dining chairs offer an intriguing material juxtaposition; their presumed walnut frames carved with delicate rococo flourish and poised upon graceful cabriole legs. The generous seating surfaces are tightly fitted in a dazzling, robin egg blue Naugahyde, a synthetic choice lending a cool, structured sheen that speaks to early 20th-century experimentation or a practical, ambitious reupholstery aiming to mimic fine, expensive leather. This unexpected, slightly kitsch practicality is immediately softened by the luxurious backs, upholstered in a beautiful, pale blue-toned gingham patterned silk, providing a welcome textural relief and airy lightness. The resulting aesthetic is one of eccentric elegance, where the cool, structured blue vinyl meet the matte, residential charm of the patterned silk, transforming the formal French silhouette into a unique piece perfect for a sunlit, stylized parlor.
Condition commensurate with age with minor wear to the density of the seat cushions. Minor scuffs and nicks along the lower extremities of each chair.
