Louis XV Gilded Salon Armchair with Floral Jacquard Upholstery

Design Inspiration

Rooted in the ornate splendour of the Louis XV era, this salon armchair embodies the Rococo spirit at its most refined. The gently curved barrel back, scrolled cabriole legs, and signature rope-twist carved frame rail speak to the 18th-century French court tradition of elevating comfort into high art. At Brass & Wood, each piece is reimagined for the modern luxury interior without sacrificing a single detail of its noble heritage.

Materials & Upholstery

The generous seat and wraparound back are dressed in a sumptuous floral jacquard fabric woven in a soft duck-egg blue ground with gold botanical motifs — a palette that pairs beautifully with both warm and cool interiors. Piped trim in a contrasting cord accentuates every seam, while a matching lumbar cushion completes the composition. The solid wood frame is finished in a rich, hand-applied gold leaf, lending the piece a luminous warmth that endures.

Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in Egypt by Brass & Wood artisans trained in classical European joinery and gilding techniques, this armchair undergoes meticulous hand-carving of the rope-twist rail, acanthus knee carvings, and scrolled foot details before the gold leaf is laid. Each layer of finish is buffed by hand to achieve the characteristic depth of a genuine antique replica.
