Armchair - Late 19th Century French Napoleon III...

An elegant late 19th-century French Crapaud (toad) armchair, expertly upholstered in a striking mustard/ochre yellow crushed velvet fabric. The chair features a classic deeply buttoned, tufted curved backrest with a low-slung, deeply padded sprung seat that showcases a beautiful slope-arm profile. The base profile is accented with a continuous line of close-nail brass stud detailing. It rests upon turned, natural finished tapering wooden legs at the front and slightly splayed supports at the rear, perfectly capturing the classic Parisian salon or boudoir aesthetic.
