Description
Designed in the early phase of what we know today as mid-century modern, this charming sofa is a unique piece of evidence showing how traditional Swedish craftsmanship was brought into modernism. The Swedish perspective on cabinetmaking is exceptional, which is why the country’s cabinetmakers’ craft remains world-famous. As a quintessentially Swedish Modern piece, this sofa is built around the core characteristics of the style: gently rounded edges, solid wooden legs, and a generous fully upholstered body.
This sofa has a solid wood frame with carefully thought out proportions. The design appears very open, which is the result of the light fabric that accentuates its curved edges. Together, these details create a welcoming design that communicates cosiness and well-being, further aided by the tufted buttons and warm wood. In combination with the unadorned styles of mid-century modern design, this sofa brings together the best attributes of the era. The four conical wood legs add an organic feel, balancing out the voluptuous profile. The two pairs of tapered legs assure great structural stability, while also enhancing the width of the sofa visually. Free from unnecessary ornamentation, the aesthetic of this two-seater sofa is sleek, elegant, and modern. With its curvy shape, this sofa is perfect to break the rigour of any space while keeping an elegant appearance, which is elevated by the light, textured upholstery.
Swedish master cabinetmakers have been creating products that last for a lifetime and become heirlooms naturally. Crafted with precision from solid wood, finished with attention to detail and care for the aesthetic dimension as well, this sofa stands the test of time thanks to both its visual and material quality.
