Referring to a very short period, the Charles X style denomination is nonetheless significant because it allows us to detect some specific elements of the taste of the time.nIt can be considered the last phase of the stylistic research of the Restoration, in which bourgeois requests and needs are welcomed, and opens up to a taste for the Gothic.
nCharacterized by wavy and wavy lines, which oppose the more squared ones of the Empire, it mainly uses light woods with darker threads and very few metal applications.
