Lot 163 , A pair of Louis XV style parcel gilt walnut fauteuils, H.3ft 1in.

A pair of Louis XV style parcel gilt walnut fauteuils, with shell and scroll carved frames and cut velvet upholstered backs, arms and seats, H.3ft 1in.
Estimate £150-200

A little light surface wear to the extreme top of the cresting rails that will need a gentle repolishing, one of the chairs has the front right leg broken through and repaired, the repair is solid but has not been particularly well finished with the filler still on show and not stained to the colour of the timber, parcel gilding fairly worn away just showing in the extreme crevices, most notably visible across the seat rails, old cut velvet upholstery in fair order, a little worn towards the front of the seats, both chairs with a very slight wobble to the frames but essentially usable.
