Design for a sofa which was made for Ford Madox Brown by Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. The sofa was shown at the firm's stand at the International Exhibition of 1862. Rossetti was inventing furniture designs from as early as 1860 and then had a chance to make work with William Morris from 1861.

It also appears in the background of Rossetti's drawing 'Joseph Accused Before Potiphar', also in Birmingham's collection.
