An Italian Carved-Wood & Upholstered Settee, Turn of 18th/19th Century

About the Item

An Italian upholstered and carved-wood settee, turn of the 18th and 19th century. This sweet antique love seat from Italy features a low-profile arched back with squared shoulders, from which the nicely carved-wood arms emerge and slope down into scrolled knuckles and leaf-carved arm posts. The chair-rail skirting is carved in a succession of swags, with rinceau carved accents atop the front knees. The sofa is presented upon six elegant and shapely legs. The current fabric is in good/usable condition, but new upholstering could make this piece your own. This late 18th to early 19th century Italian settee would make a charming addition to a bedroom, dressing room, or entry hall.
