ANTIQUE FRENCH LOUIS XV STYLE  19TH CENTURY WALNUT CANAPE SOFA WITH AN ANTIQUE HAND STITCHED QUILTED FABRIC KNOWN AS TEXTILE VINTAGE TOILE DE JOUY. I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT AGE BUT IT IS TYPICAL OF THE FRENCH ANTIQUE PIECES. THE TOILE DE JOUY FABRIC WAS MADE IN JOUY-EN-JOSAS, A SMALL TOWN NOT TOO FAR FROM PARIS. GRANDMA KEPT THIS COUCH IN HER PARLOR WHERE IT RECEIVED AN ABUNDANCE OF SUNLIGHT. THIS CAUSED THE COLORS TO FADE BUT WHEN YOU LIFT THE FULL LENGTH SEAT CUSHION, THE UNEXPOSED FABRIC IS FRESH AND LIKE NEW. YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN MY PHOTOS.

THE WOOD IS BEAUTIFUL FINE HAND CARVED WALNUT WITH 4 FRONT CABRIOLE LEGS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. I'm A BIG MAN AND WHEN I SIT ON SOFA IT IS STURDY AND STRONG. FROM MY PHOTOS YOU CAN SEE NORMAL SIGNS OF AGE AND USE, DINGS, SCRATCHES, AND OTHER IMPERFECTIONS. THIS IS WHAT GIVES IT CHARACTER AND CONFIRMS ITS AGE. 

THE DIMENSIONS ARE : 72" WIDE BY 34" HIGH AND 31" DEPTH. IT IS 25" FROM FLOOR TO ARM FRONT AND 26" AS YOU NEAR THE BACK. IT IS 20" FROM FLOOR TO TOP OF SEAT CUSHION AND 26" FROM FRONT OF SEAT CUSHION TO BACKREST.

THE FULL LENGTH SEAT CUSHION IS REMOVABLE AND IT HAS A ZIPPER ON THE BACK IF YOU WANTED TO CHANGE THE DOWN FILL. I DON'T SEE ANY TEARS OR HOLES BUT THE NEW OWNER WILL GIVE IT A CLEANING.

IT IS BEING SOLD IN "AS IS CONDITION". PLEASE LOOK AT ALL 12 PICTURES TO DETERMINE THE CONDITION.
