Fully Restored Antique Victorian Oxblood Knoll Sofa Feather Filled Cushions

About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this original Victorian circa 1860-1880 fully restored oxblood leather Knoll sofa with overstuff feather filled cushions. This sofa was fully restored around 2-3 years ago from top to bottom including the cushion internals, upholstery and hand dying.# The Knoll Sofa was first made in the 17th century. It is housed at Knoll in Kent, a house owned by the Sackville-Wests since 1605 but now in the care of the National Trust. It was originally used not as comfortable sofa but as a formal throne on which the monarch would have sat to receive visitors – something we have addressed in our restoration by adding two deliciously plump filled duck feather and down cushions. The Knoll features adjustable side arms and considerable depth of seating. It originally flaunted its exposed wooden finials at the rear corner tops, but we’ve added further detail by upholstering them in the same hand dyed leather. The out folding arms, more correctly sides, are of the same height as the back of the sofa and as seen here are originally tied to the sofa back by elaborate tassels. This sofa is a must have for any fine English furniture collector, it clearly states the owner has style, charisma and impeccable taste. Dimensions Height:- 125.5cm Width:- 197.5cm Depth:- 84cm Seat height:- 50.5cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point. This item is available for collection from our Pulborough warehouses. CONDITION Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description pertaining to the condition. Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of creasing and wear, we recommend annual 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.
