The square tapered legs are fluted and capped with acanthus carvings at the knees, tapering into turned feet. Carved rosettes accent the corner blocks, while a delicate stylized frieze runs along the apron, showcasing fine craftsmanship.
The seat is upholstered in a richly patinated olive green leather, secured with a border of antiqued brass nailhead trim. The leather’s crackled surface lends visual depth and an aged, authentic character. Rolled arms with spiral ends connect to upright supports featuring matching fluting and floral detailing, completing the neoclassical silhouette.
Versatile in form and scale, this antique and sturdy bench could serve beautifully as a piano bench, dressing bench, or entryway seat. It presents with excellent structural integrity and a warm walnut patina that enhances its refined, timeworn charm. Excellent antique condition with light surface wear and leather distressing consistent with age and use.
