anyone ever seen one like it...I found it at my local Habitat for Humanity....was recovered at some point so it only has the re-upholster tags. also they covered up the sexy tapered wood legs with the sofa skirts 8^(. looks like it came out of a strip club or somthin! anyways I thought it was cool..and got a great deal...havnt been able to pin down a maker...any help would be greatly appreciated....thanks!

Are those latex/spring cushions?
I'd guess it was made by a company such as Henredon.

the sofa
at the link below seems to be the same...but I am unsure if the company on the tag is the maker or just the upholsterer?
anyone ever heard of Mon-O-Made?

Fab sectional...
The skirts need to go. Before, during and after snappies are always desired.
Best,

That first dibs sofa...
That first dibs sofa definitely doesn't look the same, but the skirts have to go.
Are you planning on reupholstering the sofa? It could be really nice with the right fabric and upholstery job.

This weekend...
I will pin back the skirts and take a few shots(alcohol and photograph)...probably will be letting this go..it is just a little large for my space...though it is growing on my GF....maybe I should invest in a stripper pole and keep it ;^)

yeah m dennis...
it is a bit different....who made this thing...is it custom?
The current upholstery job is pretty crazy and not in that bad of shape at all. Minus a little bit of dirt that could most likely be cleaned out. I got a bit blazed and started wondering how long it took them to line up all of the stripes with the cushions and piping....good lawd!

I'm not sure who made it,...
I'm not sure who made it, but I know my grandparents growing up had a sofa that was very similar as well. It had gold paisley upholstery that matched the orange shag carpet.
