Exceptional Empire mahogany sofa, France, late 18th century (Consulate - Back from Egypt period).
High quality sculptures of Egyptian heads and finely chiseled ormolu bronzes.
This may be a production of Jacob, not stamped.
This is really a museum quality piece we made fully restored : new polish (vernis au tampon), trim redone and covered with a luminous 100 % silk blue gray satin (Tassinari & Chatel).
Our sofa is in excellent condition.
The dimensions are reasonable. If most 18th century sofas are 2m long, this one is only 176cm which is more convenient.
Length: 176cm
Back height: 92cm
Seat height: 49cm
Depth: 63cm
