About the Item

This lovely 19th century French Louis XVI style carved fruitwood settee features a floral cartouche at the crest and at the bottom front corners. The back and bottom of the settee are circled in a carved gadrooning ( a repeating pattern of small diagonal, twisted or vertical flutes carved as a border decoration.) All four graceful legs are turned and fluted. The arms are curved and terminate in an acanthus leaf design. The back and seat are beautifully upholstered in a floral and swag needlepoint motif with a courting scene as the focal point. In addition as a special feature, the sides employ added large swags, also in needlepoint. There is a peach colored gimp edging the upholstered. It truly is a little jewel.
