    Does anyone know when square bun feet came into use? I can't seem to find that information.

    Never really an element of any particular style. Could we see the whole thing?

    Hi,
    Look carefully, they might be replacement feet.

    Just from the limited view, I get a replacement vibe, too. So square, next to the flowing swirls and circle...

    that's what they say about me - but on furniture I get a 1920's-30s feeling............

    No need to tell me about all the things that can go wrong in regards to surgery...................I have had the same "incision" opened so many times that even inserted mesh won't "hold in my guts" any longer. If/when I remove the full body corset I wear, I look like I have an elephant's trunk growing from my belly................interesting, definitely not pretty, but interesting.

    I could be ribald, but I shan't, lest I amuse myself to laughter.

    Dukewright, when you say "small" are you referring perhaps to this being doll/dollhouse furniture?

    I want a full-size one upon which to faint!

    Here's a good joke on me. I saw the photo and thought OMG they found another and the feet are authentic! Then I realized it was just a shot of the whole thing!

    That's why I need to faint...

    Bless Patty, it sounds like it is for a large cat or a small(ish) dog.

    Then again, I suppose some child/person somewhere had a "doll" house large enough to have that size "fainting couch" fit inside and be "to scale." ;)

    Did you notice the the dollhouse in the photograph above? It has about a 3'x4' footprint and 3 stories...right at countertop height. It is the biggest I've seen, but I think that chair is for playing elsewhere:pompous:

    I did see the doll house in your post #16 and read its dimensions (3' x 4') in your post #18.

    I agree with your thought that the red velvet piece of furniture "is for playing elsewhere." ;)
