Antique Red Brushed Velvet Victorian Couch

Submitted by kmyent on Tue, 27/07/2010 - 1:07pm

I unfortunately have to sell many treasures in order to move from Paris quickly for a job. This gorgeous brushed velvet-covered rolled armed couch was bought in Baltimore, Maryland, U.S. 20 years ago. In Victorian style this sofa is over 150 years old and carries a history of it's own, from Baltimore to Ireland to Paris and who knows where before this beauty came into my hands. It is incredibly ornate and detailed with carvings in the arms, back board and feet. This special piece is quite a find and has served me well since I bought it a lifetime ago, it is sad to let go of such a unique and elegant work of craftsmanship. E500 is an exceptional price not to be beaten in any antique market in Paris. Thanks, and have a great day.

Winter v/s Summer

To see the Summer Sky
Is Poetry, though never in a Book it lie -
True Poems flee.
~Emily Dickinson


I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter.  Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show.  ~Andrew Wyeth


Are you one who likes the sun blazing or you prefer it subdued?? Would you agree with Dickinson or Wyeth??
