拍品专文

The richly carved frame of this fauteuil, with sinuous lines and distinctive heart-shaped cabochons, is typical of the work of the celebrated menuisier Jean-Baptiste I Tilliard. A chair of similar profile by Tilliard with the same C-scroll clasps heading the legs, is ilustrated in P. Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Français du XVIIIe Siècle, Paris, 1989, p. 834, fig. C.
