This pair of second-hand wooden chairs with white and pink fabric showcases a very exuberant Louis XVI style, enhanced by white-painted wood and delicately floral patterns on the seat. Their fabric backrest and seat add a refined textile note, while the whole retains the elegance of a vintage piece with a pronounced decorative character. With their comfortable seat height, they naturally find their place around a dining table, whether in a dining room or a bedroom. Paired with a light wood table and a few antique plates, they create a well-curated decor, punctuated by freshly cut bouquets. Being a second-hand piece, it carries the memory of its past: stains on the fabric but easily washable. Width: 55 cm Depth: 55 cm Height: 88 cm Seat height: 43 cm Seat width: 47 cm Seat depth: 47 cm A little history of the chair In the Middle Ages, sitting on a chair with a backrest was a rare privilege, reserved for the one who led the assembly: the "president" [from the Latin praesidere, to sit before]. For a long time a symbol of prestige compared to the benches and stools of the common people, the chair only became democratized in the 18th century to become an everyday object. It is distinguished from an armchair by the absence of armrests, a structure designed to offer complete freedom of movement around a table or desk. The result of a constant quest between lightness and solidity, it has evolved from sculpted solid wood to more modern lines, making each chair a witness to the history of comfort.
