Description:
This is a fine quality antique Victorian mahogany concave ottoman, newly upholstered to a professional standard in a top-quality handmade crewel embroidery, circa 1870, in excellent condition. The ottoman has been newly & professionally upholstered and benefits from a sumptuous deep seat. We sourced the crewel-work direct from Kashmir and it is handmade with top quality two-ply wool and silk, hand embroidered on apple green cotton of crewel design. The red base structured chenille fabric is from Linwood and features a herringbone design. The seat is hinged and opens to reveal a spacious interior, which is lined with its original blue rice paper (if you prefer to have the inside re-lined, please contact us for a quote). The original hinges to the lid are strong and in good condition. The underside of the ottoman retains the original wooden boards. The ottoman incorporates a moulded mahogany frame at the base and stands on its original elegant turned bun feet.
This Victorian ottoman would be useful for storing magazines, music, clothes or bedding. It would look great in the bedroom in front of the bed or in the living room. It has a lovely mahogany patina moulded frame, which has been generated by the years of cleaning and care it has received. This item is well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
