A Thayer Coggin/Milo Baughman 4 piece sectional sofa. This has been in the family since the 1980s, was given to my mother-in-law by a family friend upon redecorating. This used to be a 5 piece sectional with a chaise section but that piece was given to someone else and separated from our pieces. The original color of the sectional was a dark stone bluish-gray color. We had it recovered because there were stains and a cigarette burn in the original fabric. The new fabric is a 100,000 double rub tweed fabric in a gray color. This was recovered in May 2016. The cushions are original. We have used it as our primary sofa for the last 10 years or more. Dimensions: Overall: 104” x 104” approx. Piece #1: Right arm (looking at the sofa) 32” H x 32” D x 38” W Piece #2: armless 32” H x 32” D x 34” W Piece #3: corner: 32” H x 32” D x 32” W Piece #4: left arm (looking at the sofa) 60” W x 32” H x 32” D. The Thayer Coffin/Milo Baughman label is visible through the recovering fabric under each cushion on the sofa frame.
A family friend of my mother-in-law gave it to our family in the 1980s. It was likely purchased in Cincinnati, Ohio and that is where the original purchaser lived. It was originally a 5-piece sectional but a chaise lounge piece was given to someone else.
