Found the same sofa here, but its not marked either. I would assume if it had a label they would have kept it after reupholstering and more importantly added a photo of it.

Not Pearsall.  The base isn't right and the arms are perpendicular to the floor instead of splaying out, among other things.

Ha, no thanks dakota.
FYI, the pillows in the photo were just layed like that, its actually curved. I'll get better photos and post them. I know Pearsall did bases like that.
Thanks.

Huh...that's not the same sofa that you linked to in your #2 entry on this thread, which is the one I looked at when I said that it wasn't Pearsall. They have the same base but the rest of the sofa is very different.
As for yours:
1. The shape of the sides of the back and the way they joint the arms looks like many Pearsall chairs but I don't think I've ever seen this in a sofa by Pearsall.
2. The padding is done differently on the arms and back but maybe this was changed when it was reupholstered. I think you said it had been reupholstered, right? It looks more plump than Pearsall chairs of that style. More padded.
3. Pearsall did do some sofas with that dual platform base but I believe they were all styles that had attached end tables. The sofa and end tables were all on one big long platform.
I think your sofa is probably not Pearsall. Maybe it's better quality than Pearsall furniture, though. If you get it reupholstered, you will probably be able to get a definitive answer. Pearsall frames are not like anything that I've ever seen and I've upholstered a bunch of them and a lot of other stuff. They're pretty unique.

There are a couple things why someone could assume that this is a Pearsall sofa, shape of the back, cushions, platform style. I just sold a Pearsall sofa Model# 2408S and the cushions on your couch look exactly the same. The only difference is the back cushions, Craft Associates used 4 button on the front & back and not 2. I looked through the pictures that I have from the Pearsall catalog and I didn't see this particular sofa. Have you tried looking on the underside of this sofa for any identification marks? I know that a lot of these platform style sofa's that people claim to be Pearsall are not, but actually built in Yugoslavia in the 1960s. Here is a link to a platform sofa that I had the chance to buy before this guy who is selling it on Ebay right now. I examined the sofa and the small coffee table and it was marked Made in Yugoslavia.

The above person copied and pasted part of my post and then added a spam link to a site selling sofas. (edited by DA - message removed)
That's a new one.

Agreed Spanky, that is a new one. Thanks for the info! I'll get it flipped over and photographed and see what you think.
Thanks again!

I recently remodelled my house and need a sofa something like shown in the above picture. My new house is something similar to this https://www.facebook.com/omicrongranite.net.

Clayton,
If you don't mind having something refurbished here is a link to that exact sofa in the above picture. The sofa, Craft Associates Model #2408-S, has the original fabric but it needs to reupholstered. The person selling the sofa also has the matching club chair Model #2406-C for sale too. If you are interested, I would highly recommend that you call Pilot Freight Services about shipping from Houston to your zip code. If you have a truck or a way to pickup the sofa from the Pilot Freight nearest you it will save you some cash. By far Pilot Freight is the fastest, safest & most reasonable shipper in the industry. There is a Pilot Freight next to ever major airport in the U.S.
There is less than 2 days left in this Ebay auction.
