Elegant 1940s Edward Wormley, Dunbar for Modern, Curved Sofa on Mahogany Legs

About the Item

Elegant mid 1940s Edward Wormley for Dunbar curved sofa on six thick mahogany legs, with older re-upholstery in a Chinoiserie fabric. Upholstery is clean, minor wear, in very nice usable condition or update with your own. Primary backing is a silvery tan, with yellow, orange and blues. Foam is fine, no longer has labels. Can be used with or with skirt. I sold a love seat version of this sofa in white a few years back (see images) without skirt. Its in a Louis-Vuitton Store now. Seat depth is 24" d and arm is 22" h. It's hard to beat the quality of a Dunbar sofa, built to last ! Currently skirted, mahogany legs show some wear.
