How can I tell if my Gooseneck Sofa is an Antique or Reproduction?
Posted by admin
Curieuse asked:
I have a sofa that was given to me. The arms of the are sofa are “rolled” and upholstery covered but there is a carved wooden “frame”. On the carved part of the arms, instead of a goose design, end in a wooden scroll/ball that curves from the sofa arm. The gooseneck is actually carved into the woodwork at the center of the sofa back. The feet of the sofa are also wood & have the same scroll/ball design. The wood is dark and I don’t believe the upholstery is original. Can anyone help? or at least give me some idea of where to look?
