François Carré Sunburst/Spring-seat Garden Chairs
A set of four Francois Carre Sunburst garden chairs, offered by Joseph Stannard Antiques & Design. Designed in late‑19th‑century Paris, these fan‑back chairs—also known as Deauville or spring‑steel—feature Carre’s signature radiating sunburst pattern and flexible steel construction. One chair retains its original brass maker’s label, confirming authentic Parisian manufacture.
The set has been recently powder‑coated, giving the chairs a fresh, durable finish that will continue to weather gracefully in outdoor settings.
Elegant, sculptural, and enduring, these chairs bring historic French garden design into contemporary spaces. Suitable for outdoor living, conservatories, terraces, or any interior space that benefits from refined ironwork and early-modern French craftsmanship.
