Rococo Dining Chair with Gold-Leaf Carved Backrest (Without Arms)

Design Inspiration

This dining chair draws its soul from the exuberance of 18th-century Rococo — an era defined by flowing curves, playful asymmetry, and lavish ornamentation. The signature triple-splat backrest, adorned with scrolling acanthus leaves and gilded crown rail, evokes the grand salons of the French court. Brass & Wood has faithfully recreated every curve and flourish, transforming functional seating into a sculptural statement.

Materials & Finish

The frame is crafted from kiln-dried solid mahogany, prized for its rich, warm grain and exceptional durability. Hand-applied gold-leaf gilding highlights the carved acanthus motifs at the crest rail, mid-rail, and front leg sabots, creating luminous contrasts against the deep walnut-toned lacquer. The generously padded seat is upholstered in premium ivory linen fabric, offering a refined neutral that complements any dining setting.

Craftsmanship

Every chair passes through the hands of Brass & Wood's master carvers and gilders in Egypt, where traditional techniques passed down through generations meet modern precision. Each acanthus scroll is individually carved, each gold-leaf accent hand-burnished, and the upholstery hand-stitched to ensure lasting comfort and beauty. The result is a piece that carries the spirit of a museum-quality antique with the integrity of new construction.
