Pair of Diminutive French Louis XV Rococo Boudoir Slipper Chairs
Petite Louis XV-style boudoir / vanity chairs with carved oak frames and scroll cabriole legs (ca. 1900, France). Features carved acanthus and leaf motif throughout.
Floral silk upholstery is a later addition (likely 1930s-1940s) and shows light soiling, but no substantial damage. Can be used as is, though foam could benefit from an update, if a firmer seat if preferred.
Measures: H: 28″ x W: 21.5″ x D: 24″ x Seat height: 17″

Set of French Gilt Metal and Crystal Girandole Candelabra with Bear Motif
$1,600.00Rococo girandoles composed of gilt metal with stepped marble bases and etched lead-crystal prism decoration (ca. late 19th Century, France). The centerpiece candelabra features three branching arms accommodating three candles, while the smaller two each hold one candle, all featuring a “two bears with beehive” motif.
Good age / natural patina to the gilt; there are a few losses to the edges of the prisms, as shown (relatively minor, given the age).
