European Cabinetmaker Daybed with Green Upholstered Mattress, Europe, ca 1950s
About the Item
In much of Europe the desire for functionalism went hand in hand with understatement, refinement, and elegance for much of the mid-century era. Still, there was also room for playfulness in the form of unique fabrics and details.
Over the centuries, furniture fashion has deviated from ornate, classic looks to styles that blur the lines between artistry and functionality. As such this daybed has a streamlined, elegant look achieved by the natural materials and functional elements. The focus is divided equally between the solid exotic wood base and the fully upholstered seat cushion. The square cushion beautifully emerges from the frame, following its straight lines. The tufting features buttons in the centre of each indentation to accentuate the wide surface and deep green fabric of the mattress. The stitches are shallower than in diamond tufting, creating light depressions. The balance of the materials, surfaces, and textures is striking, especially the pairing of the button tufted fabric and the simple wooden base. The structure is completed by round tapered legs that assure stability and also counter the straight lines of the frame. This hybrid form of seating has many advantages; unlike a traditional sofa, this modern bench-style daybed won't block the view of the window and the deep seat also means more space for pillows or throws.
Combining the comforts of a bed and a sofa, this versatile model can be both an accent piece or complement and enhance its surroundings. Its stylish, minimalist look is truly timeless enhanced by the impeccable craftsmanship.
