Very beautiful pair in turned walnut from Périgord, Louis XIII period
Front baluster legs, 8-sided rear legs
19th tapestry made with 1/2 point for the floral motifs and 1/4 point for the birds

These armchairs were often placed in window recesses to take advantage of daylight when reading or doing needlework.
