专家说明

The elegant chair frames are richly carved in the late 18th century fashion with Venus pearls and sunflowered ribbon-guilloches. Their arms are enriched with Egyptian rayed tablets and have pearls wreathing the triumphal palm capitals of their acanthus-wrapped, reed-enriched and strigil-fluted pillars.

The chairs bear the brand of George Jacob (maître 1765), whose manufactory is thought to have supplied the court of Louis XVI with related fauteuils à la Reine armchairs, featuring the same patterned frame but with arms raised on Egyptian sphinx (G. Janneau, Les Sieges, Paris, 1967, fig. 319).
