About the Item

This striking Egyptian Revival–style gilded figural bench is a rare and dramatic statement piece, inspired by the grandeur and symbolism of ancient Egyptian art and architecture. Richly detailed and sculptural in form, the bench is finished in luminous gold gilt, creating a powerful visual presence that instantly commands attention in any interior. The tall backrest is adorned with hand-painted Egyptian figures and hieroglyphic motifs, rendered in vivid colors against a gilded ground. These figural scenes evoke pharaonic processions and ceremonial imagery, lending the piece a strong sense of history, mystery, and cultural reference. The seat is framed by bold architectural lines and supported by an impressive eight-leg structure, each leg terminating in stylized paw feet, a classic Egyptian symbol of strength and guardianship. Carved animal-head arm supports further enhance the bench’s sculptural quality, while decorative stretchers and symbolic motifs beneath the seat reinforce its theatrical and highly decorative character. Measuring generously in scale, this bench works beautifully as a statement hall bench, gallery seating, theatrical prop, or collector’s display piece, equally suited to eclectic, maximalist, or historically inspired interiors. Dimensions: 41 1/8" H × 58" W × 33" D A bold and unforgettable Egyptian-style gilded bench, perfect for collectors and designers seeking a one-of-a-kind conversation piece.
