Settee in Italian Damask
During this next week, I will be featuring various styles of settees. I always think of settees as more structurally interesting and often smaller than loveseats and certainly smaller than sofas. I have found, however, that the various histories I reviewed seem to intermingle the three types of furniture. For my purposes (and all the "settees" I have sold over the years), I am choosing to be more specific about what is or is not a settee. Perfect examples are French style settees - showing more curve and often more woodwork than most. They work well in any setting - I love putting these more curvaceous and traditional gems with straight lined furniture in a more contemporary setting. Examples shown are all sold. |
