A handsome pair of late 19th-century French hunting chairs crafted from solid walnut and richly carved with foliate and grapevine motifs. The pierced back splats are framed by bold spiral-turned supports and topped with grape clusters and scrolling vines—an iconic symbol of abundance and rural life in provincial France. The craftsmanship is exceptional, showcasing deep relief carving and crisp detailing throughout.

The seats retain their traditional caning, which remains in good condition, adding to the chairs’ authentic charm and lightness of form. The turned front legs and double stretchers provide sturdy support, while the dark walnut finish lends a warm patina and depth of character developed over generations. These chairs reflect the enduring appeal of French Renaissance Revival design, where sculptural ornamentation and rustic elegance meet.

In nice antique condition consistent with age and use, showing light wear and a rich surface patina. The caned seats are firm and serviceable, and the frames are solid. A beautiful matched pair that brings both decorative presence and historic appeal to any interior, whether used as accent seating or displayed as artful statement pieces. 43h x 19w x 17d seat height 19
