1930's....likely mohair fabric.

Thanks, Linda. That adds up and meshes perfectly with what I was thinking. I was so hoping that you would hop onto it because I know you have probably seen much more of this than I have. Thanks again!

totally 1930s

And really NICE!

My grandma had a sofa with that fabric . I loved the feel of it. I wish I could find the same fabric in a different color for an old sofa I just inherited. Grandma had the sofa in 1950 but she probably had it a long time before that.

Thanks guys. This was given to me by a friend who owns a beautiful 1926 Cotswald cottage in the neighborhood and only rents it as a corporate rental to preserve the property. The sofa was stored in the house when he purchased it. Apparently, it has been in the house since it was new.

Sugeysgranny, I understand what you mean by the feel of the fabric. There is nothing that can compare to the wonderful fabrics that were used before synthetics took over so much. I am just thrilled to have this with the fabric in such great condition. The legs will polish right up, when I ever have time.

This is my new baby, even more so that the Eastlake in my parlor, since it had to be completely reupholstered.
