Back to Furniture > SeatingDescription
A Bergère (pronounced ber-jair) is a type of fautueil, or French armchair. The French Bergère chair made its debut in the late 17th century during Louis XIV’s reign in France. While originally created with a heavy design, they simplified and evolved into lighter designs during later centuries.
A Bergère is designed for lounging in comfort, with a deeper, wider seat. The hardwood frame is usually stained, painted, or even gilded. It can have carved detailing or be left plain. The wood is typically beech, fruitwood, walnut or mahogany.
Constructed from solid Walnut with original panel cane work. This Berger sofa is fitted with loose feather filled cushions with piped edges and has a sprung base - VIN562F
