About the Item

French Art Deco sofa set composed of one three-seater and two single armchairs, with rounded armrests and a low, enveloping silhouette. The backs are slightly more decorative than similar period examples, bringing to mind the work of Frances Elkins. Reupholstered in an off-white cotton chenille blended with alpaca, a fabric that will develop a soft and elegant patina over time. The original frames have been carefully preserved; the internal springs were restored, and the original down filling was supplemented with new down to regain volume and comfort. The set is unsigned. While the overall lines are close to pieces by Louis Sognot or René Drouet from the early 1930s, the more expressive back suggests a different maker, and a precise attribution cannot be confirmed. Designed and made in France, circa 1930. Provenance: Private Collection Paris. Shows light wear consistent with age. In very good vintage condition.
