About the Item
A sumptuous French 19th century settee, Directoire in style, with original painted finish of French gray-blue and spruce green. The tightly upholstered seatback and bench seat is done in a modern geometric jacquard of gray and yellow diamond pattern, outlined in a nailhead trim. Green paint brings definition to the carvings on the frame and arms, such as the palmette motif and diamond panels, carried down to the legs with dimensional fluting at the top. Patina as expected from time and use which does not detract from the grand effect of the imaginative carvings. Please view the detailed images to see more.
