Brass & Wood Louis XVI Medallion Dining Chair

Louis XVI Elegance Reimagined

The Brass & Wood Louis XVI Medallion Dining Chair is a faithful homage to the refined neoclassical style that flourished in late 18th-century France. The iconic oval medallion back, crowned with a hand-carved floral rosette and encircled by a rope-twist moulding gilded in antique gold, immediately identifies this piece as a true period reproduction. The chair is available in With Arms and Without Arms arm type variants to suit different table settings and room configurations.

Materials & Finish

The frame is crafted from solid wood finished in an antique off-white lacquer that is delicately highlighted with aged gold gilding on carved details, rope mouldings, and corner rosettes along the seat rail. The upholstery is executed in a plush, plain velvet in a warm champagne-blush tone, providing both visual softness and tactile comfort.

Craftsmanship

Every element of this chair is shaped and assembled by skilled artisans at Brass & Wood's Cairo workshop. The tapered, fluted legs terminate in turned feet — a hallmark of authentic Louis XVI furniture design. Carved corner blocks on the seat apron add structural integrity while reinforcing the decorative vocabulary of the period.

Available Arm Type Options

This configurable chair is offered in two arm type options: With Arms, featuring generously padded scroll armrests upholstered in matching velvet; and Without Arms, ideal for closer table placement and a more streamlined silhouette.
