Acerbis Free System Sofa by Claudio Salocchi

By Claudio Salocchi, Acerbis

Located in Brooklyn, NY

In 1973, Claudio Salocchi designed Free System: a system of padded furniture deriving from the concept of “operated flooring”, or tatami, where the padded units could be placed freely side by side. With its completely modular and sectional elements and from the perspective of an optimal use of space, we can view Free System as the embodiment of the modern house utopia. A programme of padded furniture that goes beyond the sofa model, Free System presents a series of elements (tatami, pouf and seat with different and interchangeable backrests) that make up a modular system that can be arranged in a variety of combinations. Available elements _ seat module with curved backrest: L100 D100 H74, seat H39 cm; _ seat module with inclined backrest: L100 D100 H74, seat H39 cm; _ pouf module...

Mid-Century Italian Lounge Sofa in Patinated Cognac Leather, 1960s
Mid-Century Italian Lounge Sofa in Patinated Cognac Leather, 1960s

Mid-Century Italian Lounge Sofa in Patinated Cognac Leather, 1960s

Located in Almelo, NL

Mid-Century Italian Lounge Sofa in Patinated Cognac Leather, 1960s A striking and generously proportioned Italian lounge sofa from the 1960s, beautifully crafted in patinated cognac leather with rich character and unmistakable mid-century presence. This three-seat design showcases the casual luxury and ergonomic comfort that defined Italian modernist aesthetics of the period. The sofa features gently rounded lines, subtly curved arms, and plush, oversized cushions for both seat and back. The patinated leather surface has aged gracefully, presenting a warm, amber-toned cognac hue with visible natural wear—adding depth, personality, and authenticity to the piece. Light scratches and marks consistent with age and use are present, enhancing the vintage appeal without affecting its structural integrity. Built for comfort, the deep seat and slightly reclined back invite relaxed lounging. The overall silhouette is soft and inviting, with a solid presence that makes it a perfect anchor piece for both vintage-inspired and contemporary interiors. From loft-style living rooms to moody libraries or refined office spaces, this piece brings Italian heritage and timeless design to any setting. Condition: Good vintage condition with attractive natural patina. Light surface wear and age-related marks, but no structural damage. The leather remains supple and rich in tone. Details: Origin: Italy Period: 1960s / Mid-20th Century Style: Mid-Century Modern Material: Leather (original) Color: Cognac Dimensions: Width: 220 cm (86.6 in) Depth: 90 cm (35.4 in) Height: 74 cm (29.1 in) Seat Height: 38 cm (15 in) This is a rare opportunity to own an authentic vintage Italian leather 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.
