Italian Mid-Century Modern Walnut Sofa, 1950s

About the Item

A beautiful 1950s Italian cream two-seater sofa attributed to Paolo Buffa with a structure crafted of bent walnut that adds to its durability and strength. One of the standout features of this collectable vintage sofa is the crossed wooden panels on the sides, a curved and organic frame, with splayed and tapered feet that give it a distinctive look. This vintage Italian sofa is a rare find, with its label indicating that it was crafted by the renowned furniture workshop "Bottega del Salotto di Antonio Cerchia" located in the beautiful city of Sorrento. This workshop is known for its exquisite craftsmanship and dedication to creating pieces that are both beautiful and functional. Can be re-upholstered as an additional request. ---- We are an exhibition space and an online destination established by the passionate art director behind Jonathan Amar Studio.
