Settee, Yes or No

I am working with a client on her bedroom. She wants a settee at the end of her bed. In the beginning, I wasn’t so keen on the idea. I first thought, “So Grandmotherly.” The more I have looked at photos with settees, the more I am liking the idea. Yes, they are grandmotherly, but in an elegant, timeless way.

You know what is old always comes around and is new again. I think this might be one trend we start to see more of. What are your thoughts? Please weigh in: too grandmotherly or timeless and elegant?
