Product details
Seller's Notes:This American Classical (Empire) sofa was made around 1830–1840, most likely in New York, and has stayed in one family for nearly 200 years. The mahogany frame has a graceful scrolled crest rail ending in carved rosettes, sweeping scroll arms, and S-scroll cutouts on the base. It stands on finely carved acanthus-scroll feet with rosettes and carved animal-paw toes, the kind of hand carving New York and Baltimore cabinetmakers of the period were known for. The sofa was recently reupholstered in high-quality light green silk with an embroidered gold bee motif. The bee was Napoleon’s emblem, which suits the Empire style. Two matching bolsters and two accent pillows are included. Condition: The mahogany frame is solid, sturdy and ready to use. The original finish shows its age: scratches on the front corner block, small dings, signs of careful restoration, and general wear. All of it is cosmetic and consistent with a 190-year-old piece. The new upholstery is in excellent condition. Please see the photos for detail.
