This American made settee was created in America quite a while ago.
Whomever designed this piece sure was a European upholsterer.
Any piece with European design is always an extra challenge.
Mayhew Milwaukee tag on upper back leg.
Lots of springs in this base.
There is two coats of ties on this spring unit, I added another one.
Fresh traditional burlap above the springs.
All the horse hair retained & reset with care.
Looking across the front nosing.
Arm tops tailored cotton stuffings.
Important intersections.
Crisp and strait as possible.
The outsides backed and lined with natural cotton.
I sure was off on the amount of labor needed to get this special piece ready for service.
88 buttons in the horsehair seat cushion.
A thinnest coat possible in freshening up the stuffings in the cushion.
Extra buttons just behind the zipper slide.
Ready for service.
Thanks for looking here!
