A beautifully sculptural antique curule bench, newly upholstered in a tailored Schuyler Samperton fabric that brings a fresh, collected sensibility to its classical form. The distinctive X-form base—derived from ancient Roman curule seating—lends the piece both architectural presence and historical depth, while the outscrolled arms and richly carved apron elevate it beyond the typical bench silhouette.
The frame, crafted in carved wood with remnants of gilt detailing, features finely worked beading, scrollwork, and a gracefully curved stretcher—details that speak to a high level of craftsmanship and design intention. The form is both grounded and airy, making it an ideal statement piece without overwhelming a space.
