A late 19th century French Louis XV style walnut armchair (fauteuil) with a hand-carved frame, woven cane backrest, and upholstered seat. The open arms curve outward and are fitted with upholstered rests secured by decorative nailhead trim, while the walnut frame retains a warm natural finish that highlights the grain and carved detailing throughout. The chair is raised on cabriole legs with carved knees, terminating in scroll feet.
This type of Louis XV style fauteuil was commonly used as a salon or desk chair in French interiors and remains one of the most recognizable forms of antique French seating.
