Poltronova SAFARI Sofa by Archizoom Associati
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The Safari sofa is a multiple seat with the profile of the backrest shaped like a series of waves, one gathers in the central void, accessed through an opening, as in a sort of tribal ritual. The piece of furniture consists of four pieces of two different types [two armchair modules and two sofa modules]. The Safari sofa was put into production for the first time by Poltronova in 1968. The experimental fibreglass technique was used for the structure. For the seat and backrest upholstery, Archizoom chose a printed animal pattern fabric with a Leopard print. The same pattern is used for the polyurethane foam rug placed between the seats. The choice of the leopard pattern was a cultured reference to the work “Bedroom ensemble” [1963] by Claes Oldenburg, master of English Pop Art, and his subsequent “Leopard chair...

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...

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.
