A set of four os de mouton dining chairs, freshly upholstered in a linen blend. The frames and legs are all solid and sturdy. They date from the 19th century. The French call the curving legs os de mouton, or mutton bone, because the S-shaped curve looks like a sheep's leg bone. The shape belongs to the Louis XIII style of the 1600s, and French workshops kept making it long after. Each oak frame has shaped legs joined by a matching H-stretcher beneath an arched back, and the wood keeps the soft wear and lighter patches of a long life around the table. We would set them at a long farmhouse table with a jug of white flowers in the middle. One set of four available.
