A beautifully hand-carved and gilded 19th century French Louis XVI giltwood settee. Gracefully proportioned with a shaped oval back, sweeping upholstered arms, and finely turned fluted legs, the frame is richly finished in gold gilt, accentuating its crisp carved details and timeless architectural elegance. The settee is upholstered in an exceptional silk damask of remarkable quality. Woven in vibrant raspberry pink with shimmering gold motifs, the luxurious textile displays the rich texture, depth, and luster associated with the finest French decorative fabrics. Inspired by the grand weaving traditions of Lyon the historic centre of France’s silk industry fabric transforms the piece into a striking marriage of classical design and contemporary sophistication. Similar silks have long adorned the salons of Parisian residences, luxury hotels particulars, and some of the world’s most distinguished interiors.
