Crafted in giltwood and fashioned in the fashionable faux bamboo style so beloved during the Second Empire, its delicate turned stretchers and graceful, tapering legs lend an airy elegance to the design.
Newly upholstered in a richly textured silk faux leopard fabric, the bench strikes that irresistible balance between classic and unexpected. The warm gilded finish, softened by time, provides a luminous contrast to the playful upholstery, creating a piece that feels both sophisticated and delightfully modern.
Equally at home at the foot of a bed, in a dressing room, or tucked beneath a console, this petite bench embodies the effortless glamour and eclectic spirit that make Napoleon III furnishings so enduringly appealing. See less
