A fine 18th century Queen Anne small walnut settee upholstered in vibrant flame stitch fabric retains an authentic period presence and refined proportions. The elegantly carved arms terminate in a bird or eagle’s head motif, a decorative flourish occasionally seen on Queen Anne and early George III pieces, which adds a distinctive touch of historic character. The graceful cabriole legs finish in neat pad feet, providing balanced support, and the seat remains pleasantly comfortable for its age.
The multi-colored flame stitch (point de Hongrie) pattern offers a striking, historic contrast to the deep, traditional walnut frame, enriching both color and surface texture. Overall, it is in good condition, showing a lovely, rich patina and subtle wear that together highlight its genuine antique provenance.
Size: 60” W x 25” D x 43” H (seat height 19”)
C. 1740, England
