Upon research we found this chair to be a King Louis the XVI and are restoring and refinishing it, any ideas on what you would use for fabric coverings for the back arms and seat. We were thinking a tapestry covering? Whats your idea. And what era and period do you think this chair is from?
Personally I like damask designs best for these chairs.

good ideas Thank You so much for looking and sharing. I will be using careful consideration while I browse our Fabric Store.
I will be posting pics when we have completed the project, however, there are 3 pieces to this set, one is the chair you see, then there is a side chair without arms, and an identical Settee. Will keep you all posted :) thanks for your comments and suggestions.
