Description from the seller
Title: Spool-turned Sofa in Luigi XIII Style - 19th Century
Epoch: 19th Century (1800s)
Style: Historicist / Neo-Renaissance (Luigi XIII style)
Material: Solid wood expertly turned, upholstery in loom-woven tapestry/gobelin-type fabric with floral decoration and a border of metallic studs.
Dimensions: Height 100 cm | Width 218 cm | Depth 79 cm
Description:
Impressive and refined antique sofa from the second half of the 19th century, executed in Luigi XIII style. The piece stands out for its rich supporting framework defined by no fewer than 8 finely spool-turned legs, connected by a complex and dramatic contoured crosspiece with an undulating motif.
The seating, wide and inviting (extending to a length of 218 cm), features an elegant line with shaped arms and three coordinated cushions. The upholstery is in noble loom-work fabric with botanical motifs and Baroque-inspired color schemes, finished along the entire perimeter with a classic nailing of dark-bronze studs.
Conditions:
The item presents generally excellent period-appropriate conservational condition. Solid wooden structure, stable and fully usable. Fabric in excellent preserved state, free of obvious tears.
A piece of furniture with strong visual impact, ideal for large salons, representative entrances, or antique galleries.
