Leather Sofa

Product detailed description

Three-seater sofa probably produced in the 1990s and designed in the style of the iconic LC2 'Fauteuil Grand Confort' model, which was created by the famous trio of architects and designers Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand in 1928. A transparent label featuring a white square and the brand 'AREA' is sticked to the frame. The sofa is therefore not an officially licensed production by the Italian brand Cassina, but rather a high-quality European piece inspired by this renowned design, distributed by the Austrian company AREA.

The sofa embodies a perfect balance of geometric precision, architectural purity, and exceptional comfort. A notable feature is the inverted construction, where the supporting frame of polished chrome-plated steel tubes encircles the upholstered section like a cage. This separation of the upholstery from the frame represented a revolutionary solution in modern seating design. The frame is filled with six cushions upholstered in high-quality black cowhide leather with precise piping. The sofa is supported by eight legs, which are connected by a flat chrome strip at the base. The sofa has been cleaned and it is in very good original condition. The leather has a nice patina and shows only slight scuffs in places.
