The wood is very beautiful, with a very warm tint.
Good condition, no play.
Delivery possible for France, €60 for Paris. *Georges Heppelwhite spread the style of Robert Adam who worked mainly for the aristocracy.

Pieces that are a continuation of those of Robert Adam, Those inspired by the Louis XV style, with curved lines and arched legs, Those inspired by the Louis XVI style with turned and often fluted legs,
Finally, furniture with tapered legs, the most original.
