We recently received a matched set of two chairs & sofa sleeper from a good friend as a finishing touch for our 'vintage room' and would like some information about them . What I know is his Parents recieved this set as a wedding gift in the early twentys, the fabric appears to be some type of mohair fabric and the sofa is very heavy. Any info is appreciated. Thank you!
Do you know what the cushions and back are stuffed with? At one time I had a very similar couch from the same period and it was stuffed with horse hair.
I can't help you on the info you were seeking but I just wanted to tell you that seeing this furniture reminded me of when I would go to my grandma's house every Sunday. She had a set like this only I believe hers was green. Talk about a trip down memory lane. Glad you posted it.
This is a Kroehler set from the 20's. You can see magazine ads for sale on Ebay for this exact set 1923-1929.
