Antique French Louis XV Fruitwood Needlepoint Canape ~ Settee is the perfect choice for a colorful, long wearing seat for two in a cozy niche, reading area, or salon.  Sculpted from solid fruitwood, it features carved floral and foliate accents on the crown, apron, and the subtly scrolled legs.  The show-stopper of course is the hand-knotted needlepoint tapestry upholstery, featuring four splendid, colorful bouquets of flowers on a dark camel background.  Multiple types of flowers are represented, just like a flower arrangement from your favorite florist!  Imagine the hours of work painstakingly creating such works, all in wool for a lasting impression.
If you act fast, the original pair of matching armchairs is still available!  See Related Products below left.
