Description

12" (30 cm.) Of twisted and scrolled metal, with original gilded finish, the two piece ensemble of pedestal table and rounded back arm chair, are each covered with original blue velvet upholstery, the table with gilded stud beading around the table edge. The table is signed Maison Huret. The Huret family had made superb "real people" furniture in this style for a number of years, and after the presentation of Adelaide Huret's poupee, they introduced the same furniture in a size to display with the doll. It is very rare and beautifully made. Excellent condition, aged patina of finish. French, circa 1860.
