About the Item

An elegant Louis XV period three-seat sofa from the Rhône Valley, beautifully crafted in solid walnut with graceful proportions and richly hand-carved details. The serpentine backrest and shaped seat rail are adorned with delicate floral motifs, molded edges, and traditional cabriole legs that embody the fluidity and charm of the Rococo aesthetic. The walnut frame is warm and lustrous, with a deep patina that reflects its 18th-century origins. Reinforced with a shaped stretcher for added stability, the piece retains its original structural integrity and historical character. The sofa is upholstered in a traditional hand-stitched tapestry fabric, depicting stylized foliage in deep earth and indigo tones. The upholstery is in good overall condition, with period-appropriate wear that enhances the authenticity of the piece. Finished with classic nailhead trim. A fine example of provincial French craftsmanship, this Louis XV canapé is both refined and inviting, perfect for adding a romantic, timeworn elegance to a salon, foyer, or sitting room. Seat: 73"W X 23"D x 16"H
