"An Italian Sofa With Two Lacquered And Gilded Armchairs, 19th Century"
Description A sofa with two lacquered and gilded armchairs. Characteristic features include the backrests with scrolls of foliage and fantastical animals. The armrests, supported by sculptures of swans with outstretched wings in gold, are curved and feature a central geometric gilded design that enhances the interplay of colors it creates. The apron beneath the seat symmetrically echoes the decorations of the backrest with vegetal motifs. The supports are arched, tapering at the ends where they rest on the ground.
