      Very wonderful pieces. Probably one of the nicest Empire style pieces I have seen on the site. The chair reminds me of the English Regency period but could also be labelled Empire, I believe. I have seen a very similar couch in person so many years ago, about 40. Simply gorgeous !~

      Thank you all ???? could you help me figure out fabric? We own an upholstery business so I have amazing upholsterers But I’m far from a designer on these older pieces ???????

      Couch is amazing-- pure EMPIRE!

      I would lean toward using a blue or lighter red on it, but I did find this example that looks great:

      Do some searches online for empire couch to get some ideas:

      Go with something you like and that fits your decor! Good luck.

      Scott,
      I can’t use this in my home since I have already save and reupholstered a Duncan Phyfe set. I have no idea what to do with it, just wanted to save them!!
