Dimensions: 35” H x 62” W x 25 ½” D
A French 19th century chaise lounge (chaise longue), recently updated with new upholstery of luminous, striated velvet in a gorgeous shade of blue-green that glows like aquamarine in sunlight. The curvaceous seat is left-arm facing, with a gracefully reclining back dotted with a few button tufts to keep the upholstery tight, sheltered by a low arm across the back side that beckons one to sit and relax.

French 19th Century Marriage Dome on Stand
$895.0020.25"H x 13.13"W x 8.25"D
Dimensions: 20 ¼” H x 13 ⅛” W x 8 ¼” D
French 19th century handcrafted bridal, wedding, or marriage dome on stand. The uniquely 19th century (Victorian period) tradition of a “globe de Mariée” involved a glass cloche or dome for newlywed couples to display and preserve mementos from their wedding and representations of their life together. Each example would have special and very personal meaning to the couple, such as flowers from the wedding bouquet, locks of hair from their children, and jewelery. At center is a red, tufted velvet seat surrounded by a gilt-metal garland of leaves on which a bird carrying a wreath is perched. Behind is a small mirror handpainted with little daisies plus two small mirrors on either side and below. This unique dome is a fascinating piece of history on its own, with space to create new memories in your home. Please view the detailed images to see more.

English 19th Century Ebonized Tilt-top Tea Table
$2,200.0027.63"H x 23.50"W x 23.50"D
Dimensions: 27 ⅝” H x 23 ½” W x 23 ½” D
A magnificent English Victorian tea table (late 19th century) of ebonized wood and inlaid with mother-of-pearl on the surface. Deep ebonized color & texture of the wood contrasts beautifully with the kaleidoscopic inlay of mother-of-pearl tesserae arranged in cresting waves around the circumference and as larger pieces of shell accenting the handpainted floral decoration in the center. A turned wood support column is given definition by little rings of gold as it widens to a tripod base decorated with scrolling motifs. Note that the tilting mechanism has been stabilized at some point in history, meaning the table is fixed flat and no longer pivots. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition.
