All the elegance and opulence of the Second Empire are captured in this magnificent sofa set, dating from around 1860 and in genuine Napoleon III style and period. It comprises a very large sofa, two armchairs, and three chairs — all in richly carved gilt wood, with castors on the legs, a distinctive feature of the era’s design.

The ensemble has been reupholstered in a stunning gold-toned damask jacquard, adding depth and texture while respecting its historic character.

A remarkable group with presence and refinement — ideal for those drawn to timeless beauty and a touch of French grandeur.
