A couch by any other name...

Sofa, davenport, settee, chesterfield, divan, canapé... "It's just a couch!" as Kevin Spacey insists in American Beauty. And now it's just clutter in the basement of a downstairs vintage store in Fremont. Along with these lovely dolls with the photoprinted faces of someone's granddaughters and a purse made of buttons, a clock shaped like a life-preserver and an "I wuv you THIS much!" statue. American culture at its finest.
