This sofa is very much in the style of Ephraim Stahl of Stockholm (1768 -1820) best known for his seating with Lions paws and heads.
Partly hand dry scraped to reveal the original paint and patina, elegantly framed and proportioned.
Stunning Neoclassical carvings of lions heads and empresses are mounted on soft scrolled arms over reeded legs and sympathetically a calved frame.
