Black Leather Vintage Mid Century Daybed by Johannes Spalt Austria, circa 1959

About the Item

Early daybed designed by Viennese architect Johannes Spalt and executed by Franz Wittmann, Austria, circa 1959 Very easy to open with one hand and to change the settee into a daybed. The daybed has a black leather cover, while the feet were made of solid oak with wheels. The leather cover shows a wonderful patina. Very good vintage condition with signs of age and use. This settee is the forerunner of the model "Constanze." All measures are approximate.

    By Wittmann, Johannes Spalt
    Located in Waalwijk, NL
    Johannes Spalt for Wittmann, 'Constanze' daybed or sofa, black leather, steel, Austria, 1960s. This Austrian daybed named is typical for Mid-Century Modern design from Austria. The tufted leather seat and back is constructed with the slick and clean metal frame. This particular model, with metal frame and black leather upholstery is striking in its color palette. The elegant slim outwards tapering legs create an open feeling and give the sofa the needed air to come across less solid and robust. By only one hand movement the piece turns from a comfortable sofa to daybed. Johannes Spalt (1920-2010) was a postwar Austrian architect. In 1952 he founded the collective "Arbeitsgruppe 4" together with Wilhelm Holzbauer, Friedrich Kurrent and Otto Leitner. Their ideas and designs are still a great example of Austrian architecture...
