Description
The sofa is a very thick but soft white leather(i think it was recovered)with a chrome kick plate around it.Its a queen sleeper that has the same time period mattress with it in excellent condition.The rocking chair is covered in the same leather and has a chrome frame with light rust.The nesting/stackable tables are distressed glass with tapered wooden legs.I've never seen anything exactly like these.My question is who made these pieces?.The sofa is well put together.There is a leather cover over the sleeper springs with 14 metal screws holding it down and every one is self tapped and are fine thread.Alot of work.There is no idenifying marks anywhere except a small brown made in italy sticker on the rocker.I was told when i bought this set that the rocker and nesting tables were Maison Jansen and the sofa was a Baughman/Coggin original.I'm going to sell these and want to make sure i have the right designers and some idea what to ask for them.Any help would be appreciated.
