A beautiful 1950s French Louis XVI–style settee, combining a finely carved solid beechwood frame with sumptuous burgundy velvet and a romantic scenic seat fabric. This elegant two-seat sofa brings classic French character to a living room, entry hall, bedroom, salon, or boutique interior.
The frame is carved with refined neoclassical detailing inspired by Louis XVI furniture, including graceful lines, floral motifs, and decorative relief work. It has been professionally refinished in a warm antique gold tone, softly patinated to emphasize the carving while retaining a vintage appearance.
The backrest and curved arms have been newly upholstered in deep burgundy velvet with traditional capitonné tufting, giving the settee a plush and sophisticated look. The seat is finished in a silk-cotton blend fabric pressed with romantic floral arrangements and a mountain landscape, adding a distinctive decorative contrast to the rich velvet and gilt frame.
