Carved Mahogany Classical Sofa, Phyfe School, New York
About the Item
Note the rather elaborate cornucopia above each of the carved paw feet and, just above, the highly figured mahogany and crossbanded panels, the latter of which, to another maker, might not be quite necessary. The crest rail is also beautifully executed with strong carved rosettes, which are further echoed at the top of each arm which is defined by the highly sought-after beautifully carved dolphin. Here, the dolphins has been gilded to stand out and emphasize the specialness of this sofa, and put it in a class of its own.
This is one of the best sofas we have come by and is of a grand scale that would make a very important statement in any room.
