Anyone have any idea about the age, date or name of this sofa/settee

I purchased this piece from someone who was "getting rid of" the contents of a storage bin. The woodwork was in beautiful condition. I had one small petal(missing) hand carved to match and replaced and one broken open fret portion fixed. While the upholstery was in deplorable shape, the springs and stuffing/padding were great. The padding was a mixture of cotton batten, straw and horsehair(perhaps)- this upholstery could have been original or not.

I have had it reupholstered, the seat and springs hand tied and it looks awesome!

I have been trying to date it and find out what type of sofa or settee it is. No luck on the cyber highway - anyone out there have any idea?

Thanks for any information.
