To Bergère or not to Bergère?
You might be familiar with a bergère chair as a very tradition style chair. It goes back in time to Marie Marie Antionette, who used them in her country home Petit Trianon. But what exactly is a bergère chair?
A bergère chair is a large arm chair usually associated with the French Country style of decorating. It usually has an upholstered seat, possibly with a loose cushion, an upholstered back, upholstered arms and exposed wooden frame. A bergère chair is often displayed with a matching ottoman or stool.
