A George III French Hepplewhite mahogany window seat, W.3ft 7in. D.1ft 1in. H.2ft 2in.

A George III French Hepplewhite mahogany window seat, with foliate carved show-wood frame and cabriole legs, W.3ft 7in. D.1ft 1in. H.2ft 2in.
Estimate £300-500

Fabric upholstery a little dirty and perhaps slightly faded but still useable, framework is a good rich dark mahogany tone, tip to one of the foliate scrolls on the left hand side has been chipped away but could be concealed with repolishing, minor dents and scuffs marks scattered throughout but most notably in the lower section of the legs and feet where one would expect it from use, black fabric to the underside is faded and held in with oxidised nails, overall looks to be in honest used condition, really just needing a minor repolish.
