DENMARK
Late 19th/early 20th century
Linen, shearling, iron hardware

Similar to a knole-form sofa, this high-backed settee is designed with adjustable iron hinges rather than posts and ties. We have restored it inside and out, reupholstering in Belgian linen and Scandinavian shearling. Width with arms fully open is 104″. Take a load off.
