For sale a beautiful antique deeply and expertly carved walnut recamier att. To john henry belter. The design is of a french nature thus the word recamier. It could be called a sofa or fainting couch. At any rate it has peculiar form and beauty and all the curves are just were they need to be. The carving is expertly done and is 1/2 deep or more in some places. It is very solid and does not wiggle, wobble, or move about at all. It was made circa 1860 if not by belter by another cabinet maker with equal skills and expertise. The fabric is in great condition with no problems to report, it could be cleaned i suppose. It is heavy material with enough nap to fluff abit when rubbed in a different direction. As you can see it is tufted on the back.. It is 71 inches long, 37 tall at the back, and 28 inches deep in the seat. It appears to still rest on the original porcelain casters. A quite rare and unique item. By the way just a side note, it has the belter center carved button on all the defined areas that have carving. After nearly 60 years of collecting one hears a lot of tidbits such as horner eggs, belter button, jellliff buttons etc. This item is in the category “Antiques\Furniture\Sofas & Chaises”. The seller is “jjtune” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
