An extremely rare piece and incredible to find in its original upholstery - our breath was literally taken away when we discovered this in a Marseille Chateau. There are minor marks to the upholstery and a small amount of historic woodworm holes that have been further treated to ensure no activity. This is a truly fantastic piece.
