Overview

A charming and beautifully proportioned antique French painted and parcel-gilt boudoir chair sofa - an intimate, decorative single seat in the Louis XV taste, circa 1910, designed for the private apartment rather than the formal reception room.

Key Features

  • French Louis XV taste, circa 1910
  • Ivory painted frame with parcel-gilt highlights
  • Carved floral cartouche to the centre apron
  • Slender cabriole legs
  • Deep-buttoned salmon-pink velvet upholstery
  • Brass stud detailing throughout

Craftsmanship & Detail

The frame is painted ivory white with parcel-gilt highlights to the mouldings, slender cabriole legs, and a carved floral cartouche to the centre apron - a combination that gives the piece its characteristic French lightness and refinement. The deep-buttoned back and generous seat are upholstered in salmon-pink velvet, finished throughout with brass stud detailing to all edges. Compact in scale yet generous in comfort, this piece transforms a bedroom corner, dressing room, or entrance hall beautifully.
