It is finished with an intricate hand-worked floral beadwork top, arranged as individual panels with decorative borders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lid opens to reveal a useful storage compartment with its old interior lining still present. The box has a classic sarcophagus-form shape, with gently concave sides, moulded rails and small bun feet with castors below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ottoman is sturdy and firm, with no signs of old structural repairs and no woodworm found. No maker’s marks have been found. The hand-worked top shows age and wear, and the remaining exterior upholstery is worn, so the piece is offered with reupholstery in mind. Even so, the existing needlework top is a particularly attractive feature and may be worth retaining or incorporating into a future scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth 80cm × Depth 42cm × Height 43cm\u003cbr\u003eWidth 2′7″ × Depth 1′5″ × Height 1′5″\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KONTRAST Antiques, Vintage and Retro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64678987694457,"sku":"953548","price":790.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/4219\/files\/19th-Century-Sarcophagus-Ottoman-with-Beadwork-Upholstered-Lid-Antique-Seating-KONTRAST-Antiques-Vintage-and-Retro.jpg?v=1790103529","url":"https:\/\/kontrastco.com\/products\/19th-century-sarcophagus-ottoman-with-beadwork-upholstered-lid","provider":"KONTRAST","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
