1970s Grand Italian Postmodern Curved Sectional Sofa
About the Item
Curved modular sofa, fabric, chrome-plated steel, Italy, 1970s
This Italian sofa from the 1970s takes on a distinctly biomorphic form, with an unmistakable visual reference to a caterpillar. Its segmented backrest, composed of plump, tubular cushions, wraps around in a sinuous, almost serpentine curve. Rather than a conventional rectilinear layout, the sofa arcs inward in a sweeping semicircle, encouraging a shared, inward-facing social arrangement. The curvature breaks away from modernist rigidity, opting instead for an organic flow. The chrome-plated steel frame – sleek, minimal, almost skeletal – acts as a contrast and constraint, like a structural exoskeleton. It keeps the plush mass of the upholstery in check, giving the piece tension and direction.
Please note that we advise reupholstery before use. This item contains threadbare upholstery with tears and stains. Reupholstery can be done before shipping by our experienced craftspeople in our own in-house restoration atelier. With high attention for the original, they make sure every piece retains its value and is ready for the many years to come. We kindly ask you to contact our design experts for further information about the endless possibilities our restoration and upholstery atelier has to offer. Of course, a locally organized reupholstery is possible as well.
