Thomas Molesworth style settee or love seat, most likely by early maker, Uptown Furniture. Chimayo cushions, burl sides, leather fringed arms are all reminiscent of Molesworth's own personal pieces. Bold bright red with green leather and brass studs. The massive burls on the front are about 14" wide at the base. The Chimayo cushions have a spread wing thunderbird design in black and cream. The seat itself is 57" across, 38" deep and 35" tall. Some wear and tear to the fringe but overall a very intact, sturdy and undamaged piece. A nice and very comfortable addition to any western motif home.
Provenance: From the Estate of Thomas W. Lorimer.
