It has cabriole (scroll legs). It was originally a window bench also known as a banquette de fenetre. The height is 31" and the width is 14" and the length is 29". The original caning is in excelent condition and I believe it was made between 1890's-1920's when the height of window benches were being made. I found this piece from an estate sale and they said this piece had been handed down through generations. See less
