Description
I bought this very beautiful piece last night at an auction...it was advertised as an "Empire" bench. The bench is made of beautiful wood and has leather upholstery. It is stuffed with a mixture of horse hair and straw. I've included several pictures with the hopes that someone can tell me what I have gotten myself into. I would like to refinish and reupholster the piece myself but after inspecting it, I think I may have to send it elsewhere.
