This Pair of Late 19th Century Neoclassical Directoire-Style Walnut Side Chairs With Rosette Mounts is a warm set with natural wood character and subtle ornamentation, great to serve as additional dining chairs, accent chairs, or decorative companions in a libary or other chosen livng space.

• Solid walnut frames
• Curved crest rails with an inset upholstered panel framed by carved contours
• Circular metal rosette mounts at each upper corner of the backrest
• Backs are upholstered with shaped panels that follow the contours of the carved frames and finished with corded piping that outlines the serpentine form of the backrests
• Generously padded seat cushions that are upholstered in the same coordinated textile as the backs
• Seats rounded corner blocks transitioning into tapered front legs that are subtly turned and feature a decorative metal collar or ring detail near the upper portion
• Rear legs extend upward to form the back stiles with a shaped stretcher between the rear legs
• Good antique condition with structurally stable frames that show age-appropriate wear consistent with 19th century furnishings, including scattered surface marks, minor nicks, and small finish variations visible along seat rails, legs, and back elements. The crest rails display natural variations in the walnut grain, with some darker tonal areas and minor surface. Upholstery appears intact and structurally sound, with visible wear to the piping in some areas and slight fraying or looseness along sections of the corded trim near the back panel edges. The plaid upholstery fabric shows general age-related wear, including light fading, minor discoloration in places, and small irregularities along the edges where the fabric meets the piping. The underside view shows solid wooden seat construction with corner blocks. Minor wear and finish variation are present on the underside wood components. Overall, the chairs present very well for their age.
