Furniture Style Series - Camelback Settees


Modified Camelback - Queen Anne Legs 


Custom Settee in Cream Linen (in shop)
My Favorite Camelback Settee
This is the second part of the series on settees and loveseats.  Finding the definitions murky, I have decided to make the distinctions necessary.  For me loveseats are more like fully upholstered wide chairs that often complement (unfortunately often MATCH - which I think it too matchy-matchy), a specific sofa.  This review is about settees with great back curves - usually described as camelbacks.  They can be skirted but most often are not and have varying leg styles - from Queen Anne, to Chippendale, to Claw and Ball.  The arms are gently rolled.  I love their elegant looks and, with the right fabric, they truly can go anywhere!  All settees shown are sold.
