Vintage French-style Mid Century Two Seater Sofa In Baby Blue Damask Fabric.
The second of two available - please note , this one has a rip to the back panel (see photos).
This style is sometimes referred to as a "chapeau de gendarme" or a "kidney-shaped" settee and vintage features detailed hand-worked fringes along the base. These couches are frequently constructed with hardwood frames and traditional upholstery techniques and this one is no exception. The upholstery needs cleaning but is in exceptional condition with almost no snags or sagging, all fringing intact and with original deep-buttoning adornment. Upholstery feels to be traditional horsehair.
One of two two-seaters available, along with a pair of matching armchairs. In excellent condition for the age and very much useable in a modern home.
Where I cannot be certain of the age of the piece, the stuffing feels to be horsehair and thus suggested pre-1950 and therefore would not be subject to current fire safety standard rules. Please be aware that this is only an estimate however, and thus purchase with regards to fire safety is at own risk.
Would be a stunning vintage boudoir addition, in a shop window or on stage. Or just a stunning piece from a bygone era in a vintage-inspired home.
