This regal, high-backed 19th century Louis XIV style armchair refers back to a time when the size of a person's chair reflected their social status - the bigger and more imposing, the higher up the ladder you were. The chair has an elegant silhouette with curving armrests and cabriolet legs, and is decorated with fine wood carving and gilt. It can be upholstered to match any design scheme.
