Pair Of Armchairs Called ‘caquetoires’ Renaissance Style – Late 19th Century
Pair of Trapezoidal Armchairs.
These narrow-backed seats have two outward-facing armrests.
The baluster legs are turned for those at the front, and square at the back. They are linked together by 3 crossbars.
These so-called 'Caquetoires' armchairs, the first armchairs equipped with armrests, designed in the Renaissance spirit, have a fairly modern shape today.
This type of seat was intended to accommodate women who wanted to "cackle", that is to say discuss.
The fabric is in fair condition.
