A 19th Century Royal Settee.
A 19th century carved royal settee , upholster in crimson red velvet fabric with a button back.
The back of the settee is finely carved in walnut - with a rampant lion on the left hand side and a rampant unicorn on the right, the shaped moulded top rail being partially gilded.
The settee does need reupholstering or partially restoring as the webbing has broken beneath the seat. Structurally the the frame is very strong and there doesn't appear to be any makers stamps beneath, although one might be uncovered during the reupholstery process.
This is a fantastic one of piece, and is purported to have come from the Sandringham estate after a fire on November 1891, which destroyed 14 rooms on the upper levels of the property. Though I do not have any evidence to support this claim, the settee does clearly bare the emblems of the Royal Garter - the English lion and the Scottish Unicorn.
Seat measurements - Height 44cm x Width 163cm x Depth 60cm
Overall measurements
Height = 92 cm (36.2")
Width = 163 cm (64.2")
Depth = 67 cm (26.4")
