Editor's notes
This sofa was inspired by a beautiful vintage piece we found in a salon in Place Bellecour in our favorite French city - Lyon. We've carefully translated the vintage Napoleon III style silhouette into a comfortable, modern piece that will be one of your favorites. Laurie visited the makers time and time again until the sit was just right.
What is Napoleon III style?
Napoleon III style, also known as Second Empire style, refers to the architectural and decorative arts style that was popular in France during the reign of Napoleon III, from 1852 to 1870. This style was characterized by a mixture of historical revivalism, classicism, and modern innovation.
In architecture, the Napoleon III style is characterized by the use of rich and decorative materials, such as marble, bronze, and gilded ornamentation. Buildings in this style often feature mansard roofs, which are characterized by a double-pitched roof with dormer windows. Other features of the style include the use of grand entrances, expansive staircases, and ornate balconies.
In the decorative arts, the Napoleon III style was known for its opulence and luxury. Furniture, textiles, and accessories were often highly decorative, featuring intricate carving, inlay, and embellishments. The style also made use of a wide range of materials, including exotic woods, tortoiseshell, and ivory.
The Napoleon III style was popular throughout Europe and was often used for public buildings, such as opera houses and train stations, as well as private residences. Today, many examples of the style can still be seen in cities across Europe, particularly in France.
