High Style Griffin Tete a Tete
Circa: 1890
Dimensions: 29 1/2″ H x 56″ W x 25″ D
Finish: Good original
Incredible High Style Victorian Mahogany Winged Griffin Tete a Tete in the original finish and very old upholstery. The griffins take on a comical air with wide open mouths with teeth and furrowed, deeply carved brows. The wings are very well done with delicate etchings, thick open scroll carvings on the sides and exceptional carved feet, even with toenails.
The piece is framed with two beautifully framed and carved plaques with scrolling and leaves on both sides. There is more fine detail on the side supports and apron, all in keeping with the wonderful quality throughout.
