George Smith "Signature" Sofa - Small 2-Seat - In Pale Blue Italian Velvet - RRP £10,000    

Hello Friends, and welcome to another unmissable offering from Lord Browns Furniture, the UK’s premier resource for fine Sofas and Chairs. On offer on this occasion is, quite possibly, the only sofa you might ever need to buy. This is an ultra-rare opportunity to acquire what is, unequivocally, the best of the best, it being a most spectacular, as-new, pristine George Smith “Signature” standard-arm, cushion-back “Medium” 2-seat sofa, dressed in one of George Smith’s breathtaking, peerless, effortlessly-elegant Italian Velvets in a soft, pale-blue, and with dark-oak tapered-legs with brass-castors. As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this listing, George Smith pieces are the epitome of classic English furniture design, are of peerless quality, and exhibit detailing and execution of an unrivalled standard. In a world of temporary pleasures, George Smith create beautiful furniture built to last a lifetime, with there being no finer, or more beautifully appointed, example of their work than this. Purchased from George Smith some time ago but, remarkably, it is as perfect as could be wished for, and is available for immediate delivery. This piece is in pristine, totally-unmarked condition, having barely been employed since it left George Smith, and is entirely free from fault, flaw or damage. Aside from some light-marking to the finish of the legs and castors, it could be considered nothing short of perfect. Please view the images provided closely to confirm its flawless condition and appearance. This peerless velvet is supremely unblemished at present, and indistinguishable from mint, factory condition. The sofa’s dimensions are a compact H-92cm, W-160cm and D-96.5cm, and the breathtaking seating position this iconic English design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, very-generously overstuffed feather-filled seat and back-cushions, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. Costing in the region of £10,000 when new in this particular fabric option, it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt it will serve and delight its new owner for many years to come. Delivery of this piece to most UK mainland addresses will cost £120, and can be organised on behalf of the winning bidder upon request using one of our hand-picked panel of specialist, fully-insured independent furniture couriers.
