Hello tiny10,

The beauty of this chair is in its details. We particularly liked the scale and the age of this chair in relation to all the additional elements in this room. For your own French chair, you might take a look at the following examples to see if anythings looks like it might be applicable for you:

A fun face:)

A lovely ikat pattern :)
Century City Office · More Info

We ALWAYS recommend an animal:

And its always fun to change the back fabric, which you will see frequently:
Transitional Lavender and Blue Frisco Home · More Info

Best of luck with your decorating and please let us know if we can be of any assistance,
