About the Item

This impressive canapé from 19th-century France exemplifies the elegance and craftsmanship of the era. Measuring generously in size, it features a framework of meticulously carved wood, which has been both painted and gilded to achieve a luxurious finish. The intricate woodwork showcases the artistry of the period, with elaborate detailing that highlights the skill of its artisans. The upholstery is adorned with Beauvais tapestry, renowned for its high quality and distinctive floral patterns. This particular motif not only adds a touch of natural beauty but also reflects the prevailing design trends of the time. The canapé's provenance is notable, as it once belonged to the esteemed collection of Dr. Ricardo Espírito Santo Silva, further enhancing its historical significance and value. This piece embodies the opulence and sophistication of 19th-century French decorative arts.
