1950's Mid-Century Modern Folding Daybed / Sofa

About the Item

Vintage 1950's Midcentury Modern foldable sofa / daybed for sale. Originally from the 1950's, and was professionally reupholstered in the 1960's. The owners had it covered with a plastic sofa cover after all these years so the upholstery is flawless. It's in a lavender pink brocade silk with white accents. The backrest easily folds down to a daybed. Very practical couch that is really well made. Has four tapered legs finished in walnut. The front two has solid brass caps. Great 1950's design and aesthetic. It's really comfortable, and really solid. One of the last images is of the sofa with the custom sofa slip cover that it comes with. The sofa was just used for a photo shoot with the one and only Beyonce for the March issue of Essence Magazine where she graces the cover. Photography from the photo shot is by Andre D. Wagner. When sofa converts to bed it is 42" total depth or width.
