Description

My Aunt has this sofa.  It came from her cousin in Fall River Ma.

Length 72"  Depth 22"

Seating Length 58"  Seating depth 18"

 

I am not sure what kind of wood, but it is dark perhaps mahogany or walnut.

I don't have a measurement of the back hight.

The legs are large and round with carved o's on the sides of each leg.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

I have more detailed pictures of all aspects of this piece if it would help
