Spanish Revival Sofa Floral Tapestry Chenille Fabric Barley Twist Turned Spindle
Located in Topeka, KS
Incredible vintage Spanish Revival or Mediterranean style floral tapestry chenille sofa comprised of a dark wood frame with barley twist spindle post sides, brass decorative details, three foam filled loose zippered Dacron wrapped foam seat cushions, and three loose zippered Dacron wrapped foam back cushions, two bolster arm pillows, new dust cover, round tapered wood back legs, and front ball casters. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, at first look I thought this sofa was reupholstered but given a second look this is its original! It is in great condition. But the foam in the seat cushions is starting to show its age and will need to be replaced soon; however, that’s easy to do with the zippered cushions. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1970’s.

Michael Taylor/Schiaparelli Sofa, 96"long, custom Greek Key Base
Located in San Francisco, CA
Elsa Schiaparelli was born in 1890 in the Corsini palace in Rome. With a father
who was the director of the Lincei Library and a professor of Oriental literature, an astronomer uncle and a mother descended from the Medici's, she grew up in a family of aristocrats and intellectuals. She studied philosophy, even though her dream was to become an actress.
In 1911 she published a collection of overtly sensual poems, Arethusa.
When her parents learned about it, she was sent to a convent in Switzerland,
where she left again after going on a hunger strike. 1913 marked the year of
her emancipation. She set off for London. this city proved to be the beginning of freedom. She met count Wilhelm Wendt de Kerlor, and they
married in 1914. They left London for New York in 1916.
In 1922 she moved to Paris. During the day, Elsa worked at an antique
dealers. In the evening she frequented the famous restaurant, Le Boef su le Toit, which attracted the Paris smart set. Her circle of artist friends grew.
After meeting Paul Poiret, the greatest couturier of the time, she tried on a
few designs, but could not afford such pieces. The experience of couture,
luxury, quality, design, colors, materials, embroidery and shapes lit a spark
in Elsa, that would prove to be one of the turning points of her life.
She surrounded herself with the best creative talents: Elsa Triolet, Alberto
Giacometti, Jean Schlumberger, Meret Oppenheim, Jean-Michel Frank
Jean Dunand, Jean Clement and Raymond Peyent. All influenced her
designs. In the 1950's Elsa designed the iconic Schiaparelli sofa...

Rare Sculptural sofa by Edoardo Landi for Nikol Internazionale, Italy 1971
With this sofa you not only get comfort in your home, but also a great work of Art.
The sofa creates a shell-like environment that cocoons the sitter. With your own imagination, the sofa can be set up in different ways. This sofa would look beautiful in a Mohair or bouclé Fabric
Each sofa is 230 cm in length, 100cm width, the hight is 60cm, seat height 35cm.
When setup like a corner 230cmx330cm
Born in Modena in 1937, Italy, Landi studied architecture in Venice and attends the School of Industrial Design in Venice between 1962 and 1964. In 1959, he founds Group N with Alberto Biasi, Manfredo Massironi, Toni Costa and Ennio Chiggio.
Landi’s work is based on the use of geometric shapes with programmed inclinations or separations, through which he manages changes in the viewer's perception. The artist develops retinal fatigue and optical illusions in some of his works, causing a closer relationship between the viewer and the work.
In 1963, he participates with Grupo N at the IV Biennale Internazionale d'Arte di San Marino, where they receive their first prize. Since 1968, his works have been present in international exhibitions in Rome, Oslo, Tokyo, Budapest, Bologna, Paris, Milan and other cities. Since 1971 he has been interested in graphic design and the use of Industrial objects in interior design.
Often this sofa is sold as an Ennio Chiggio sofa but is not from his hand,
however the sofa was produced by Nikol wich Chiggio also designed for. They were also both a member of the art movement Gruppo N...

Shop Unique Sofas on 1stDibs: Find Mario Bellini Sofas, Togo Sofas, Vladimir Kagan Sofas and Other Seating for Sale
Black leather, silk velvet cushions, breathable bouclé fabric — when shopping for antique or vintage sofas, today’s couch connoisseurs have much to choose from in terms of style and shape. But it wasn’t always thus.
The sofa is typically defined as a long upholstered seat that features a back and arms and is intended for two or more people. While the term “couch” comes from the Old French couche, meaning to lie down, and sofa has Eastern origins, both are forms of divan, a Turkish word that means an elongated cushioned seat. Bench-like seating in Ancient Greece, which was padded with soft blankets, was called klinai. No matter how you spell it, sofa just means comfort, at least it does today.
In the early days of sofa design, upholstery consisted of horsehair or dried moss. Sofas that originated in countries such as France during the 17th century were more integral to decor than they were to comfort. Like most Baroque furnishings from the region, they frequently comprised heavy, gilded mahogany frames and were upholstered in floral Beauvais tapestry. Today, options abound when it comes to style and material, with authentic leather offerings and classy steel settees. Plush, velvet chesterfields represent the platonic ideal of coziness.
Vladimir Kagan’s iconic sofa designs, such as the Crescent and the Serpentine — which, like the sectional sofas of the 1960s created by furniture makers such as Harvey Probber, are quite popular among mid-century modern furniture enthusiasts — showcase the spectrum of style available to modern consumers. Those looking to make a statement can turn to Studio 65’s lip-shaped Bocca sofa, which was inspired by the work of Salvador Dalí. Elsewhere, the furniture of the 1970s evokes an era when experimentation ruled, or at least provided a reason to break the rules. Just about every area of society felt a sudden urge to be wayward, to push boundaries — and buttons. Vintage leather sofas of that decade are characterized by a rare blending of the showy and organic.
With so many options, it’s important to explore and find the perfect furniture for your space. Paying attention to the lines of the cushions as well as the flow from the backrest into the arms is crucial to identifying a cohesive new piece for your home or office.
Fortunately, with styles from every era — and even round sofas — there’s a luxurious piece for every space. Deck out your living room with an Art Deco lounge or go retro with a nostalgic '80s design. No matter your sitting vision, the right piece is waiting for you in the expansive collection of unique sofas on 1stDibs.
