Charles X Period French Meridienne Sofa in Blue Velvet

About the Item

An eye-catching Charles X ‘Méridienne’ sofa, upholstered in blue velvet. The frame is finished in a light-coloured wood veneer, which highlights the simple but elegant design of the wraparound apron, with only a single palmette adorning its front face. Four sturdy turned ‘bun’ feet complete the look. Exuding understated elegance, the asymmetrical form of this decadent lounger would make it an excellent choice for placement in any room.
