What is a tête-à-tête seat?
1 Answer

A tête-à-tête is a two-seat sofa, similar to a loveseat except for the fact that it’s designed for both seaters to comfortably sit next to one another. It has an s-shaped backing with seats featuring opposite directions. Shop a collection of tête-à-têtes on 1stDibs.
