The quality of execution and the richness of the attributes, make this small sofa particularly close to the most beautiful executed by Jean Baptiste Claude SENE (1747-1803), the greatest Master of the French siege under Louis XVI, with Georges JACOB; Its seats, whose lines are always pure, are very neat, very refined, very well proportioned. He became the official Supplier of the Garde Meuble de la Couronne, in 1785, working directly for the King and Queen, for Versailles, Saint Cloud, Compiègne, Fontainebleau ...
