19th Century French Louis Philippe Period Mahogany Sofa
About the Item
19th Century French Louis Philippe Period Mahogany sofa was hand-crafted during the first half of the century with style elements that were in a constant state of flux at the time. The elegantly scrolled form represents the essence of the French scroll, and includes a graceful double-arched seatback, bold serpentine-shaped armrests and a solid, rounded apron across the entire width supported by reverse-scrolled feet carved with stylized fern fronds and lions' paws. Other than the carving on the legs, the entire wraparound framework is devoid of carving to allow the sheer natural beauty of the exotic imported mahogany to shine forth, bookmatched to provide visual intrigue. The slight curvature of the framework from the tips of the armrests all across the base also adds a nice effect. Upholstery shows some wear but is very serviceable, and includes two matching bolsters.

The sofa rests on four square fluted legs. The Biedermeier period began in the states of the German Confederation and in the Austrian Empire in 1815 (Congress of Vienna) and ended in 1848 (March Revolution). The Biedermeier style referred mainly to the decorative arts, but also included sculpture and painting. In contrast to the opulence and heroism of Napoleon's Empire, the Biedermeier style promoted calm and simplicity. From 1830 onwards, it embodied a new, comfortable, bourgeois way of life. In furnishing, the emphasis was placed on the structure of the furniture that had robust and geometrical forms, softened by curves. The simplicity of the materials, mainly light woods, was compensated by the variety and exuberance of the forms the backrests of the seats were carved in fan shape, the armrests of the sofas rolled...Category
