Georgian Antiques has dated this piece to the 1860s.
The sofa has a carved top rail with a large scallop shell and swag of flowers below it. There is Rococo carving on both sides and the frame is shaped on the sides. It has padded arms and the front of arms are also carved. There is a double serpentine front with a carved apron and frieze, and the sofa stands on very stylish cabriole legs. The pair of armchairs again has a carved top rail, wonderful vase shaped back, open arms with carving shapes all over, standing on cabriole legs at the front and outswept back legs. The four side chairs are of a similar ilk, with unusual castors which are ribbed on the front. All of the suite is covered in the original needlepoint, which is floral and depicts various scenes. The fabric is worn consistently on all of the pieces. (We will split the suite).
