Dutch Low Chair “Chauffeuse”

I kind of like this ebonized Dutch Low Chair or Chauffeuse

Sale 2838, The Decorative Arts Sale incl. Fine Paintings,30 June – 1 July 2010
Amsterdam

The moulded frame on S-shaped legs joined by a turned baluster front stretcher, the padded back and seat covered in black material with floral and chinoiserie decoration, on castors

A comparable “chauffeuse” is in the collection of Paleis Het Loo and illustrated in Paul Rem, Hofmeubilair, Negentiende-eeuwse meubelen uit de collectie van Paleis Het Loo, Zwolle, p. 113, cat. nr. 61.

Via Christie’s.
