Description

A Very Fine Late Regency Period Mahogany Sofa in the Manner of Gillows. Circa 1830.

Having extended tub armchair-like form, this piece was constructed from mahogany of the finest quality which has attained a fine colour after years of use. The classical detailing is typical of the period but nicely carved, the scroll ends with leaf detailing and panelling and the frieze incorporating further panelled details and ornamental carving. Interesting turned and reeded legs, with original castors, are reminiscent of those frequently employed by the great firm of Gillows of Lancaster.
