Directoire style painted canape with a cornes seatback is definitive of what many consider one of the most elegant of all French styles. The subtle curved lines of the framework and support belie the complex angles and shaping that was required to produce the form. Fine hand-carved detail is further enhanced with gilding and original painted finish, with original silk upholstery.
