About the Item

Royal House Antiques Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this new, George Smith Signature Scroll Arm, Howard & Son's Model, two seat sofa and matching armchairs suite with feather filled base cushions and ottoman bench footstool upholstered with the exceptionally luxury William Morris Forest Linen RRP £42,000 Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price Well, where to begin! This suite is the absolutely finest quality available today, they have beech and oak frames that has horse hair, fibre and feather padding, the back is fully upholstered so there are no loose cushions, it has a deeper than normal seat platform and the seat cushions are overstuffed with down feathers. The upholstery is the world famous and highly coveted William Morris Forest Linen, this is the highest grade of this type fabric, it is very tricky to find and is usually on back order for 3-6 months much the same with the sofa and armchair frames which is a 12-24 week order time The suite has been professionally upholstered with very close attention being paid to the pattern repeat, if you look closely at the seat cushion you will see the fabric flows from the back rest to the top of the cushion to the front panel and on down to the bottom platform of the sofa and armchairs, and the same from left to right as well on the sofa which is insanely complicated for an upholsterer to achieve and uses a great deal more fabric than not pattern matching Sofa dimensions Height:- 87cm Width:- 185cm Depth:- 100cm Seat height:- 51.5cm Armchair dimensions Height:- 86.5cm Width:- 79cm Depth:- 98cm Seat height:- 50cm Footstool dimensions Height:- 39cm Width:- 104.5cm Depth:- 42cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements, please ask.
