[QUOTE="bgirardot, post: 272043, member: 5494"]Greetings, Inherited this old couch from our dear aunt, but do not really know anything about it for sure. [ATTACH=full]86122[/ATTACH] My wife says the family have always thought of it as original Biedermeier from about 1840 since my aunt and my wife's family all live in Switzerland very near Germany and Austria. Can anyone help us identify if this is in fact correct? In looking for Biedermeier styles online, there are very few pieces that look like this, I basically only found 1. But since I do not know much about antiques of any sort, it is possible my searching is not very effective. Any information would be most helpful and appreciated. To save some grief on these forums, more photos, higher resolution are available at this link in a google photo album: [URL]https://goo.gl/photos/Zrg27KAwiAEr2aNc7[/URL] Cheers[/QUOTE]
