About the Item

On offer on this occasion is a rare, original "Barcelona" Daybed from the world renown furniture house of Alivar, dressed in the most sublime, tactile pale-cream leather, and with polished chrome framework. As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this Mies van der Rohe masterpiece, Alivar pieces are the epitome of contemporary furniture design, are of peerless quality, and exhibit detailing and execution of an unrivalled standard. In a world of temporary pleasures, Alivar create beautiful furniture that remains a joy forever, and there can be few more-beautiful examples of this timeless icon of design than this. This piece is in superb, original beautifully-maintained condition, reflecting the regular employment it has seen in the past, and is entirely free from fault, flaw or damage. Its fine order reflects the TLC and remarkably considerate-use afforded it in the past and, aside from some light marking to the leather-areas and piping of the cushion (as you would expect when considering the nature of this lightly-sealed leather) is as handsome as is possible to imagine. Please view the images provided closely to confirm its incredible condition and appearance. Beautiful in the extreme, and benefitting from an effortlessly-elegant, seductive choice of hide which only serves to increase its warmth, personality and comfort. The dimension of the daybed is H-32cm, W-98cm and D-196cm, and the breathtaking seating/lying position this iconic modern-design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, generously upholstered composite-filled cushioning, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. With the current Knoll Studio (who now hold the licence to manufacture these officially-certified pieces) incarnation of this icon of design costing in excess of £13,000 when new, it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt that it will serve and delight it's new owner for many years to come. Delivery of this piece to most UK mainland addresses will cost £120, and can be organised on behalf of the winning bidder upon request using one of our hand-picked panel of specialist, fully-insured independent furniture couriers. Should I be able to help you further, feel free to message me. For important payment, shipping, returns, cleaning and contact information, please read the appropriate information provided. Warm regards, Daniel.
