The 17th century French Courts, which were also the centers for Pagan art and grandeur of that age and this set captures the spirit very well.
The details about the fabrication and creation of the sensational sofa have not been declared as yet. From the looks of it the sofa seems to have been carved out of marble. It is perhaps the hardest material and must have demanded the most tenacious craftsmanship. The corners of the sofa have been finished very neatly. The ornamentation and the detailing is awesome and the perfect representation of the era. However, it is the backrest that is the highlight of the sofa and truly sensational in terms of design. But what makes the sofa truly royal is the blue velvet cushion and seating. There have been many other examples of ornamental furniture but this sensational sofa has raised the bar and others are sure to follow.
