Description
Swedish Biedermeier 4-5 seat sofa couch in classic light honey color French polish finish with curved arm detailing and ormolu style decorative ends and central motifs in the highest quality quilted golden birch veneers.
Good example of the Swedish Biedermeier style and has a very satisfying curve to the legs and lots of carved detailing
It is a real impact piece with the swooping arms and a very comfortable seat for added comfort.
It is also very rare as we believe that there may also be some sort of bed storage underneath the seat with what looks like a mattress in it but we cannot confirm what it is without removing the upholstery. We have added a photo for you to see.
Your upholsterer can remove whatever is present underneath when reupholstering if you don't want it in place.
The sofa back is webbed we think and very comfortable.
The sofa will be re-polished prior to shipping to remove any major flaws but we always leave some of the 'life' the sofa has acquired when we re-polish as otherwise it will lose its feeling.
The sofa ships in the original fabric which you may want to change as it has some marks of wear and tear or we can reupholster for you in your supplied top fabric for an extra cost
The sofa back as with all Biedermeier sofas of this period is plain wood rather than veneer, it has a cotton cover over the back pad.
Please Note - This sofa is heavier than usual due to the fold out bed mech underneath - please factor that in in terms of delivery and also you can probably have the mechanism removed if you dont want it
Seat Height: 21.66 in (55 cm)
Condition report:
Repaired: probably some minor repairs during its life. Wear consistent with age and use. Minor losses. Minor structural damages. Minor fading. The sofa is shown in the original fabric which is marked in places - It will be fully repolished prior to shipping by our specialist french polisher.

Returns
We have a 14-day return guarantee for orders from individual sellers, within the UK and European Union. View full policy.
all items will require approx 2 weeks preparation time before they can be shipped - the cost of shipping depends where you are and will be carried out by specialist antique shippers. Most items will be blanket wrapped for safety during transport.
If the item needs to be carried up stairs or beyond the ground floor please let us know as that may affect the shipping quote and also if there are any issues for carrying in larger items such as narrow doorways, bends in the stairs or other potential obstructions.
Once we have your postcode we will provide you with the delivery cost and an idea of how long shipping will take - it is normally carried out by the shippers on a round robin basis to reduce the cost to you so we will need to find out when they are next in your part of the UK.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
