Walnut And Vienna Straw Sofa With Chairs,18th Century

We are excited to present this rare 18th-century living room set, which includes a long sofa (approximately three seats) and two accompanying chairs. Originating from Italy, this exquisite set was crafted by skilled cabinetmakers during the Louis XVI period. The structure is made of solid walnut, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the era, while the seats and backrests feature fine Vienna straw, meticulously woven by hand using traditional techniques.

The design is characterized by its simple yet rigorous lines, embodying the refined and understated elegance favored during this historical period. Delicate floral carvings adorn the wooden structure, adding a touch of artistry and enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal. For added comfort, the seats are fitted with custom-made cushions, elegantly upholstered in rich red velvet, providing both style and support.

While the set exhibits some signs of age, including minor defects in the Vienna straw and a few stains on the velvet cushions, these imperfections do not compromise its stability or charm. This living room set is a perfect representation of Italian elegance from the 18th century, ideal for embellishing a room, study, or entrance hall, and it brings a piece of history and sophistication into your home.
