Trouvailles Inc. Directoire Style Leopard Upholstered Settee, Late 20th C.

Item Details

This Neoclassical style settee, handcrafted by the renowned American firm Trouvailles Inc., features a fruitwood frame with elegant Directoire-inspired lines. The curved back is anchored by a central square panel featuring a carved laurel wreath medallion, flanked by scrolled volutes. The arms are exceptionally styled with outward-scrolled ends and bamboo-turned horizontal supports. A focal point of the piece is the plush leopard-print upholstery, providing a bold, Hollywood Regency flair. The frame is further detailed with rosette-carved blocks above saber legs and a central foliate motif on the apron. This bench represents the high-quality craftsmanship and eclectic historical revivalism typical of Watertown’s luxury furniture production during the late 20th century.
