With flat or curved back decorated with strong moldings. Armrests with lotus leaf and foliage scroll finished by a flower. Belt decorated with rosettes and leafy stems. Front legs tapered and ringed topped by leaves. Posterior legs in saber. Empire period. Later period cover. Sofas : H. 101 cm. L. 190,5 cm. D. 63 cm. Armchairs : H. 97 cm. L. 62 cm. D. 53 cm. Cabriolets : H. 91 cm. L. 60 cm. D. 40 cm. Chairs : H. 92 cm. L. 51 cm. D. 44 cm. (Wear and tear to the textile on some seats) These seats can be linked to the production of Jacob-Desmalter. We find here the scrolled armrests which appear in his production for the first time in the armchairs delivered in 1808 for Napoleon's bedroom at the Tuileries as well as for Josephine's bedroom at Fontainebleau the same year. The extent of our furnishings testifies to the large orders of the dignitaries of the Empire for their homes.
