Four superb neo-Renaissance style chairs in solid carved walnut, testimony to the high-level cabinetmaking expertise of the final third of the 19th century, with Italian inspiration.
Their X-shaped feet of the curule type — a direct legacy of the Roman sella curulis — connected by a turned stretcher, confer on each piece rare architectural presence. The high backrest rises with majesty, crowned with lion heads carved in the round and flame-shaped foliage finials, framing a panel of cream and gold damask fabric with floral motifs and acanthus leaves, fixed by delicate gilded brass upholstery nails.
A gallery of turned balusters, framed by sculpted pilasters, dialogues with a generously padded seat of the same precious damask, set on a frame adorned with a central sculpted medallion. The warm patina of the walnut reveals subtle reflections that are acquired only with time.
In good overall condition, with slight fabric wear consistent with their age and authentic character. The fabric can be changed on request.
