Futon Sofa Appraisal

Mission-Style Futon with Patterned Cushions

This item is a futon with a sturdy wooden frame, likely made of oak or a similar hardwood, exhibiting visible wood grain throughout. The frame has a warm, medium brown finish and features a Craftsman or Mission-style aesthetic, characterized by straight lines and slatted side panels under broad rectangular armrests. The vertical slats on the side panels provide a distinctive design element. The futon is equipped with two primary cushions: a back cushion and a seat cushion, both appearing thick and substantial. The main futon mattress/cushion system is covered in a fabric featuring a vibrant, multi-colored geometric pattern. This pattern incorporates shades of gray, light blue, terracotta or peach, and black, with various abstract and tribal-inspired motifs such as chevrons, stripes, and linear designs. Additionally, there are two smaller throw pillows with a similar, though not identical, geometric pattern, complementing the main cushions. The fabric on the smaller back support cushions appears to be a dark solid color, possibly charcoal or navy. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant damage such such as tears in the fabric or major gouges in the wood. Minor wear consistent with use might be present but is not discernible from the image. The wood frame shows no visible maker's marks or signatures. Based on its design, it likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century.
