Description
Content (description)
On a low base stand four elaborate legs with voluted edges and floral relief decoration. The face of the seat is decorated with floral scroll. On the seat is a cushion, over which is laid a fringed drape, with its ends hanging down the sides. The claws of a bird remain on the cushion, but the rest of it is lost. Between the front legs is a footstool, on which stands a tall vase filled with flowers (?), now very damaged. Its dimensions are noted on the drawing: larga palmi 3; alta palmi 2 3/4; grossa palmi 2 1/2.
