Are you asking if it is a genuine antique (as in 18th Century) Chippendale? No, the proportions and legs are all wrong for that. In fact, other than the camel back, it doesn't have much in common with even reproduction Chippendale furniture which would have narrower rolled arms and longer, straighter legs. I doubt your sofa is older than 30 or 40 years. As far as value, if the upholstery is in perfect shape you might get $150 to $200 for it on Craigslist.
