About the Item

Very nice vintage MP-81 sofa exude comfort and sophistication. The supportive frame envelops you in a gentle embrace as you sink back and unwind. A raised, tubular headrest, distinct from the seat, provides soothing support for your head and neck when you are fully relaxed in these luxurious chairs. The sofa boasts rich cognac leather upholstery and elegant jacaranda wood frames.. Designed by Percival Lafer in Brazil and manufactured by Lafer S.A. Ind. Com. Percival Lafer is a brazilian designer pioneer of the Modernist movement. He is most famous for his chair and sofa designs, which combine low-profile hardwood structures with plush leather upholstery. “I’ve always been drawn to the motion features of furniture,” he’s said. “The engineering and design work that goes into its mechanisms is fascinating and fulfilling.” Born on April 12, 1936 in Brazil, he studied at the Mackenzie Presbyterian University College of Architecture in São Paulo. After graduating, his father passed away and he and his brothers took over LAFER, his father’s furniture company. The designer currently lives and works in Campos do Jordão, Brazil. Condition : The sofa is in a generally good condition, with the leather displaying a very nice patina that reflects its age and normal use. Dimensions (cm) : 3-seater : W206 x D88 x H85 SH40
