A serpentine arched crest with outscrolled arms on downswept supports and an over-upholstered seat on square molded legs joined by stretchers. The frame is made of oak rails, poplar arm supports, cedar crest rail and yellow pine. The sofa represents a small group of Philadelphia sofas encompassing the nicely shaped and pitched arch to the back with generous sweep of the arms and the downward movement of the supports. CONDITION: The actual frame of the sofa is in untouched condition with very little damage. The previous owners removed the legs in order to utilize the sofa in a New York apartment.
