Rare Victorian Damask Upholstery Walnut Carved Lion Paw Feet Sofa Armchair Suite

About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this original Victorian walnut framed three piece suite with Walnut hand carved Lion hair paw feet A very high quality and well made example, the cushions are all medium feather filled, they are fully upholstered on both sides so should the worse happen and you stain one side you can simply flip it over. The complete frame is all metal coil sprung, that’s the arms, the base and the back, the front panel is also sprung which is rare and a sign of the highest quality seating. The front panel (which sits behind you knee) is usually a solid piece of timber, on luxury models is coil sprung which offers extra comfortable. The padding is all original horse hair, if you squeeze it you will hear the crunch The Damask upholstery seems to be in very good order, there is an ever so slight little discoloration on the side panel of the sofa, it’s almost impossible to see, I tried to picture it but its so faint it wouldn’t show up. Otherwise I genuinely can’t see a mark on it The frame is walnut and the legs are all Lion hairy paw in the 17th century style, they have been cleaned waxed and polished Sofa dimensions: Height 92cm Width 190cm Depth 97cm Armchairs dimensions: Height 92cm Width 88cm Depth 97cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point This item is available for collection from our Wimbledon warehouses Condition: Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade.
