French 19th Century Louis XVI Style Sofa

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 35 ½” H x 76 ½” W x 30” D

A timeless settee in the Louis XVI taste dating from the 19th century with painted wood frame sheltering the upholstered interior of three down-feather seat cushions, tight seatback, and two side panels. In classic 18th century fashion, the straight rail across the back makes a clean silhouette that is open and inviting, sloping down the low arms cushioned with little “manchette” upholstered pads to rest one’s elbows, and enclosing a slightly bowed seat deck. Fluted and rosette carvings at the corners transition into the short, tapered legs. Note that the settee is currently covered in a white muslin fabric on the interior with exposed tacks–ready for its next look in the new fabric of your choosing or left untouched for that casually elegant lifestyle. Please view the detailed images to see more of this comfortable and inviting settee.

Arm height: 25 ¼” H; Seat height: 20 ½” H; Seat depth: 23 ¼” D
