Laurel Crown Empire Swan Settee

Description

While the British were enamored with Greek and Rococo Revival furniture, the French were blazing trails of their own. The Empire furniture era began in the second phase of the Romantic period, in which the arts and individualism were encouraged with great fervor. As a result, seating styles took note from historical designs of Egyptian, Roman, and other origins. Egyptiennerie, as the French called it, was an essential component of the Empire style of furniture. You’ll find no shortage of old-world sophistication in our Empire settee.
