Description:
This is a superb quality antique Edwardian inlaid rosewood & mahogany marquetry three-piece salon suite, comprising a sofa and two armchairs, circa 1900, which has been newly upholstered in a beautiful pale gold & ivory structured silk brocade, finished with ivory braiding and is in good condition. The suite boasts satinwood floral string inlay to the arms and frames and a padded scroll backrest and down swept padded arms terminating on carved floral knuckles. The frames are decorated with stunning marquetry inlaid carved panels, depicting inlaid urns with crossed torches, flanked by elaborate foliate fretwork, interspersed between rows of fine mahogany spindles. Satinwood string inlay adorns the whole frame and further marquetry floral work is visible at the foot of the arms. The armchairs and sofa stand on pretty ring turned feet and they boast the original mug castors. The back feet are splayed, which is a sign of good quality.
This suite features a rich brown rosewood colour to the frames. As it boasts the original polish, the suite has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and the years of care and cleaning it has received. It is impossible to recreate this colour if it has been re-polished.
The suite would look superb in a variety of rooms, from the hallway to the living room or bedroom. It would certainly grace any home and is a great investment, as it is extremely functional. So don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely set of furniture.
