Louis XVI-Style Large Bergère Lounge Chair

A masterful cabinet-making process led to this unique beech chair, faithful reproduction of an iconic bergère from the Louis XVI period (1774-1793). Minutely carved and finished with shellac polish, it sports an enveloping design with a Vienna straw backrest that also outlines the armrests with its sloped sides. Gold-leaf details and a loose tailored cushion add to its precious allure.
