This long sofa is reminiscent of the Victorian style that flourished in the 19th century. In Victorian England, a furniture culture that pursued decorativeness and comfort flourished against the backdrop of prosperity brought about by the Industrial Revolution. This sofa features an elegant camelback backrest, symbolic of that era, and features a graceful silhouette with gently curved lines. The upholstery is made of dusty pink damask, and the woven pattern of continuous plant motifs that emerges from the surface creates delicate shadows depending on the angle of the light.

The wood appears to be hardwood such as oak or ash, and its deep brown grain has acquired a lustrous sheen over time. The legs are decoratively turned on a lathe, resulting in an intricate finish that highlights the skilled techniques of the artisans.

Victorian-style sofas, influenced by the Neoclassical and Regency styles, evolved into furniture that combined rich decorative elements with practicality. This sofa's camelback back is a design that was popular in Britain from the mid- to late 19th century, and is characterized by its beautiful curves that gently envelop the sitter's back. The ends of the armrests are decorated with scrollwork reminiscent of conch shells, a decorative technique unique to Victorian furniture.

The damask upholstery has been a favorite of the noble classes since the Middle Ages, and the intricate patterns that emerge from the surface, combined with the sheen of silk or cotton, create a luxurious atmosphere. The dusty pink of this chair has a soft, faded texture that has faded over time, adding to its elegant charm. The seat has just the right amount of elasticity and durability.

The legs are equipped with casters for easy mobility, making this a heavy piece of furniture that is also designed with practicality in mind. Each lathe-turned leg is carefully shaped by lathe work, with decorative ring-shaped grooves evenly carved into it. Brass-colored studs decorate the edge of the seat, further enhancing the classical atmosphere. These attention to detail speak to the high aesthetic sense and technical skill of Victorian furniture craftsmen.
