The sofa is in overall good to very good original condition. It retains its scraped old surface with a wonderful deep natural patina. The arms are slightly outward bent in a neoclassical style. The cartouche over the central section displays a pair of neoclassical opposing sphinxes and is a reference to Napoleon's late 18th century campaign in Egypt. The sofa retains it's old surface but has been reupholstered in a high-end silk which remains in very good condition. The sofa is ready for another two hundred plus years of use and would incorporate into multiple design themes from a structured neoclassical to use as an accent piece in a contemporary home. less
