Extraordinarily beautiful (true - reversed) pair of Museum Quality side chairs sculpted in the early 18th century. The seat backs are expertly hand carved wood in the chinoiserie style of the 1720s period , complete with singes (monkeys) et oiseaux (birds). On chair 1 is a large monkey at the center back with a peacock above him where he stretches out his arm to the right.

On chair 2 is the reverse facing monkey with a phoenix above his monkey hand to his left. Surrounding this is the traditional exceptional asymmetrical curves , ornamental scrolls , and acanthus leaves and from top to toe , front and back more sculpture , with a lighter ornamentation on the legs and under seat. They are proportioned in a most elegant way with curving legs on front and back. These are side chairs from the period (regency) of the boy king Louis XV , feom around 1720.

We have never seen the like. They were black when we found them w some traces of old leaf. They have been (water method) gilded in April of 2019.

The upholstery is a silk Jacquard greyish blue with gold flowers and a large gold artichoke on the seat. If you wish to see pictures of the restoration process ; we have them.
