German Couch Settee

By LeatherWolf, 24 August, 2011
Description

 The back lifts off of it and sits into two oversized dovetails for lack of a better term. It needs to be restored but I'm curious as to what it would be worth fully restored.  I can't even find a picture of one similar to it online anywhere except in doll furniture. It appears to have straw padding in it. I would appreciate any help at all in identifying it as well as coming up with a restored value on it. I've never seen another one like it and the one local antique dealer (been open for over 30 years) that I've shown pictures of it to has never seen one either.
