Timeless French Elegance Meets Modern Refinement

Immerse your home in the grandeur of French design with this late 20th-century French Renaissance-style Corbeille settee, exquisitely crafted and lavishly reimagined in luxurious textiles and finishes. Marrying 18th-century Louis XVI elegance with modern comfort, this piece is an artful statement of taste and sophistication.

Frame & Craftsmanship:
Constructed from premium beech wood, known for its strength and fine carving quality.
Features elaborate hand-carved detailing—a central flaming torch framed by garlands of delicate florals, evoking French Renaissance symbolism of light and prosperity.
Refinished in hand-applied gold leaf, giving the frame a luminous patina with warm, regal character.
Graceful cabriole legs and sweeping curved lines reinforce the traditional Louis XVI silhouette.

️ Upholstery & Comfort:
Re-Upholstered in high-end pistachio green damask—a luxurious blend of cotton and silk with a stylized floral motif that dances across the surface in subtle sheen.
The tufted backrest adds a dimensional elegance, while the solid back lends structure and stability.
Features a plissé blue velvet trim, folded and stitched with precision—adding exquisite contrast and artisanal flair.
Fitted with new premium-grade foam and padding, offering both firmness and plush comfort.

Approximate Dimensions:
Width: 130 cm / 51 in
Depth: 53 cm / 21 in
Height: 92 cm / 36 in
Seat Height: 55 cm / 22 in

Style & Placement Suggestions:
This settee is the perfect centerpiece for romantic, European-inspired spaces such as:

Formal sitting rooms
Bedroom lounge corners
Entryway foyers
Boutique retail settings
Its petite footprint and curved back make it ideal for smaller rooms needing an injection of classical grandeur without visual heaviness.

Shipping & Handling:
Shipped in a custom-built wooden crate for maximum protection during transit.
Includes full insurance and tracking, ensuring safe and secure delivery to your door.

✨ Why This Piece Stands Out:
This is not merely a seating piece—it’s a visual poem of French history, craftsmanship, and elevated taste. The combination of pistachio silk-damask upholstery, gold-leafed beech wood, and velvet plissé edging is nothing short of couture-level design for the home.

Bring home the refined romance of the French Renaissance, in a form both functional and breathtaking. See less
