I can't decide what I love more: the chairs or the fabric! Tell me, what do you prefer about this gorgeous pair of Directoire style bergères?

The Directoire style, popular from 1789 to 1803, bridges the transition between Louis XVI and Empire styles. It’s known for its understated elegance and simple forms. As you can see, the front of those armchairs still echoes Louis XVI influences, while the "sabre" legs hint at the forthcoming Empire style. This pair dates fom a little later, mid 19th century.
But above all, these are two exquisite lacquered wooden armchairs chairs in a delicate green, adorned with a stunning peacock-patterned fabric. Like me, you’ll surely fall for those armchairs that have journeyed from the 19th century and across oceans to the UAE.
