3-Piece John Jelliff Parlor SetIf you can get past the aging tufted upholstery here's a nice 3-piece John Jelliff (attributed) parlor set. The female figure on the carved arms gives this away as most likely from Jelliff. Many times Jelliff sofas are divided into three discrete sections and here is an example of a single-piece back. The chairs are both armchairs and although they have different color upholstery and the carving designs on the back are different (one has drop finials, etc.), the carved maiden arms are identical. Bidding starts at $750 and expected range goes up to $2,000. Listing details can be found here.
