Deconstructed French Napoleonic Chair
We're sorry. This product is no longer available
Please continue browsing.Inspired by the unadorned beauty of their grandfather's 19th-century wing chair – liberated from its velvet upholstery and the frame exposed – the Van Thiels replicated the Old World artistry in the French Napoleonic Chair. A distressed walnut frame, accented with nail tacks, is complemented by the texture of burlap and fabric. This is furniture for the ages.
- Circa 1870, with a distinctive hoop back, bowed seat and bobbin-turned front legs
- Built by hand with a kiln-dried, corner-blocked solid walnut frame
- Wide jute strapping supports the 8-way, hand-tied seat spring
- Deeply tufted seat cushion, visible whipstitching and nail tacks
- Two layers of burlap cover the back and the rail below the seat
- Seat cushion is a down-blend fill; a thin foam core wrapped with 80% feathers and 20% down
- The walnut frame and legs are smoothly sanded and given a matte finish to look as they would before the final stain and polish; nicks, imperfections and natural variations in color are to be expected
- Two front legs sit on non-locking casters
- Fabric is treated for stain-resistance
- 29"W x 34"D x 35"H
