Description
This 19th Century Regency Australian Cedar Miners Couch (1860 - 70) was imported to the United States from Australia in the 1970s by the previous owner's sister.
The upholstery (a golden velvet) was redone approximately 3 years ago and and is in good condition, with little to no wear.
It's exceptionally rare for an Australian miner's couch to be in the US, so this is a wonderful opportunity for someone to acquire this beautiful example of mid 19th century Victorian furniture to your home or business.
Condition:
Alterations: Original Design Modified
Imperfections: Some Imperfections
Condition Notes: For its age, this bench is in great condition. There are some expected flaws, which I've included in the photographs. Please make note of these before purchasing.
