Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be an ornately carved walnut two seater sofa of the 1880s, decorated with carved lion heads and paws, accanthus leaf, rocaille and a cherub face. The sofa or settee or Kanapee might be of french origin. Currently prices for antique furniture are at a low. The estimate is based on similar items sold or offered at auction.
