A window seat is a miniature sofa without a back, intended to fill the recess of a window. In the latter part of the 18th century, when tall narrow sash windows were almost universal, the window seat was in high favour, and was no doubt in keeping with the formalism of Georgian & Victorian interiors.

This window bench would make a lovely addition to any home, remains in original condition and would look great in the hallway or at the foot of a bed.
