Description

My grandparents had this in their bedroom for 60 years, at least. I’ve had it for 35 years.  It is a Victorian love seat (tete-a-tete).  It is oak with rattan-like weaving. The upholstery is silk.  The center legs are marked with a backward capital C and a capital G. It is in perfect condition.

Quite sure it's maple or mahogany from these pics. We don't do much American but this is a great piece. The mark is a mystery so far.
