A further object of the invention is ally joined together and each facing in opposite direction With relation to the other.

A further object of the present inventionk is they constructionv of a furniture piece of the character stated which may have suitably formed frames of practical and durable construction.

With the above general objects in view and others that willappear as the nature of n the invention is better understood, the saine consists in the novel combination, construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fullydescribed,' illustrated in the accompanying drawing and pointed Vout in the appended claim. i y I In the drawing forming a part of this application, and in which like designating characters refer to corresponding parts throughout the several views, I

Fig. l is an elevational perspective view of the ypresent invention. while the saine is in an upholstered condition; and

Fig. 2 is an enlarged elevational perspective view of the frame forming the basis for the .present invention. e

Referring to the present drawing there is shown therein a substantially rectangular base frame including apaireoflonger sides 10 andapair of end sidesll, said side Inemf bers 10 being substantially twice aslong Vas the end members v11.

Upwardly projecting from a pair ofvdiagonally disposed corners of said base yframe. are uprightsV 12. Similar uprights 13 up-f Vwardly project, one from the center of each f side member A10 of the base frame, said up-` rights 13 being oppositely disposed withre- Vlation to each other and in transverse relation .to the frame. vvUprights 12 andv 13 on each side of the base frame are connected at .their'upper endsby arch pieces 14, said nprights-'l2 and 13,'and arch pieces ,14, on eachsi'de of said base frame constitute backs-` Vv14: as shown on Figrl, for eachV of the two .n comprising a rectangular frame including a 5 chairs in their unitary formation. .i
