Victorian Carved Mahogany Sofa or Chaise Longue

19th century

Sold by Prior and Willis

Description

Victorian carved mahogany sofa. Rare and attractive... better than most... lovely tall carved and turned front legs. No significant woodworm. Very heavy and strong, with no loose joints. The sofa has recently been reupholstered in a heavy weight upholstery fabric, with a natural, light cream/oatmeal colour.

As with all genuine antique furniture, you can expect to see some historic knocks, marks, wear, imperfections, cracks, scratches, repairs and/or alterations. Period brass and ceramic castors to the front legs with some wear (as you would expect), replacement brass castors on the rear. This type of fabric contains the odd slub or fleck of cotton of a different colour picked up in the loom during manufacture. This is normal for all but the most expensive fabrics and not very noticeable except under close examination in bright lighting conditions.

Overall maximum dimensions: 191cm wide, 90cm deep, 95cm high (40cm high seat when sat on).

Please check dimensions before purchasing.
