Featured What's UP with my sofa.....

I know it's not antique....sorry.......
It used to have 3 cushions.... and was recovered twice.
( my childhood cat had razor claws, and took the back down to the wood twice..)
It was painted from it's natural brown....also.

So , it was in the house circa 1960....I don't know if it was older than that....but think not.

Is there a style name to go with it?
and.....shudder......what would be a fair city price....should I decide to let it go..?
( I can't believe I'm asking..........but if ya can't beat em.......)

 

French Provincial?

 

One advantage, it’s not brown!!
Very nice, shall leave for the pros.

 

g-d bless Mom....she was good at decor....
it's this cream white color in demand now.......more than brown ???

 

Very pretty piece. Getting stuff recovered now is so prohibitively expensive I think that more than anything has affected the 2nd hand furniture market. Here in N. Fl you might get $100-150,wich is a shame because they dont make quality like this anymore.Personally,I like the upholstery.

 

I think Judy nailed it. You've done a nice job of keeping it contemporary with the linen fabric and wood treatment. It might net you an extra $100 around here....maybe $250 U.S.

 

Me, too. And, the ONE long cushion is much better!

 

Y'all must have started to rub off on me...my first thought was "French provincial" (and I know absolutely zip about furniture).

 

ya learn here by osmosis !!!

 

Meanwhile, I want to know what the long-haired fuzzy is who is glimpsed in the first photo! It looks like either a long-haired dog or the back end of a Maine Coon.

 

RUTH......that's my wife's head laying on the pillow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

she has a thick head of hair !

 

LOL! Tell her she makes a cute kitty.
