Professionally refreshed in a stunning and scrumptious Everfast Billiard Green Fine Chenille, these frames pair a striking, deep-toned silhouette with an incredibly plush, tactile fabric texture. The vibrant billiard green hue brings a sophisticated pop of color to both traditional and contemporary spaces. We recommend configuring this set as a coordinating pair of library or fireside accent chairs, utilizing other pairs or standalone chairs (sold separately) as an elegant vanity seat or statement desk chair.

This Drexel Heritage style of chairs is cataloged across luxury and vintage design archives as the Drexel French Regency / Louis XVI Carved Walnut and Cane Back Dining Chairs, which were produced during the Drexel Heritage era.

Silhouette: With their distinctively shaped, high-profile cane back rest with its gently curved, arched top rail and the geometric corner cutouts near the bottom, these chairs are masterful Mid-Century treasures. They feature the precise French Regency fluted straight legs accented by square corner blocks at the top and ring-turned detailing above the feet.

Stamp: The tracking tag is stamped 11/29/72 (November 29, 1972). This matches the exact golden era of the merged Drexel Heritage Furniture Company, when they heavily produced high-end French Provincial and French Regency revival collections utilizing this precise style of stamped, multi-tear production control slips.

The Drexel Heritage: Founded in 1903 in the foothills of North Carolina, the Drexel Furniture Company grew from a humble local sawmill into one of the premier luxury furniture manufacturers in American history. In 1968, following decades of crafting high-end, made-to-order seating and collaborating with iconic mid-century designers, the firm merged with Heritage Furniture to form Drexel Heritage. Celebrated for their timeless proportions, rigorous construction, and masterful woodwork, vintage Drexel Heritage pieces are widely collected today for their heirloom-level craftsmanship that was built to last generations.

The Everfast Fabric Appeal: Complementing the frame's prestige is a high-performance textile bearing the iconic Everfast heritage. This premium chenille brings that exact same legendary standard of industrial durability and premium quality into the home.
