Louis XVI Dining Chair with Tufted Oval Back (Without Arms)

Design Inspiration

Rooted in the refined elegance of the French Louis XVI era, this dining chair captures the neoclassical spirit of late 18th-century Versailles. The signature oval medallion back, gently curved legs with fluted detailing, and rosette corner blocks reflect the disciplined grace that defined an epoch. Brass & Wood reinterprets this timeless silhouette for the contemporary interior without sacrificing a single detail of its aristocratic heritage.

Materials & Finish

The frame is sculpted from premium solid hardwood and finished in a soft ivory lacquer that evokes old-world refinement. Delicate gold-leaf highlighting traces every carved moulding, flute, and rosette, adding warmth and luminosity. The seat and oval back panel are upholstered in a plush cream fabric featuring hand-applied button tufting, creating a rich tactile contrast against the painted frame.

Craftsmanship

Each chair is hand-built in the Brass & Wood atelier in Egypt by artisans trained in classical European joinery. Mortise-and-tenon joints ensure structural integrity, while hand-carved ornamental details are individually finished and gilded. The upholstery is hand-stitched and button-tufted by skilled craftspeople, guaranteeing a level of precision and longevity befitting a heirloom piece.
