Armchair (chaise à bras), French and Italian

At the turn of the sixteenth century in France, the loose cushion that was placed on earlier chair types was made more permanent and comfortable and was enhanced by a padded back.(1) This graceful form with refined, turned column legs with entasis and large rectangular upholstery areas that could accommodate treasured show covers was a common type in French-influenced areas and in southern Flanders since the first third of the sixteenth century
