Alberto Colombi & Gian Paolo Guzzetti Bonzo sofa Italy 1975

About the Item

Highly rare and super comfortable sectional sofa designed by Alberto Colombi and Gian Paolo Guzzetti and manufactured by Aba in Italy in 1975. This is a truly exceptional find. This particular sofa, known as the Bonzo model, still has its original oxblood leather, which has developed a beautiful patina over time, showing its history and character. But the sofa remains in very good original condition with soft and firm foam and no tears or holes in the original leather upholstery. What sets this sofa apart is its distinctive design. The double backrest not only creates a unique and playful appearance but also offers a high level of comfort and back support. The external seam detailing is beautifully executed, adding to its overall appeal. The sofa has a bulky appearance due to the big sized elements and wide arm rests. One of the remarkable features of this sectional sofa is its versatility. It's made up of 6 seating elements and 3 end/dividing parts, allowing you to arrange it in different ways to suit your preferences and space as you can see on the last pictures. It can be attached to each other to your wishes. Literature; M. Fonio Idee 3 Furnishings Gorlich Editore Milan, 1985, page 23

  • Mario Bellini Quartet sofa Cassina Italy 1964
    By Mario Bellini
    Located in Roosendaal, Noord Brabant
    Extremely rare 932 'Quartet' sofa designed by architect Mario Bellini and manufactured by Cassina in Italy in 1964. Very early model made up of five separate pieces. It's quite challenging to come across one in this large and impressive size. What makes it even more special is its gorgeous cognac colour. This sofa's modular design means you can arrange its elements in various ways to suit different settings. It's still in good original condition, considering its age, with some expected wear and tear that adds character and enhances its beautiful appearance and patina. There are no holes or tears in it. In the 1960s Mario Bellini reinterpreted the concept of classic furniture stuffing with the 932 model, transforming the padding of the traditional armchair into an item of furniture: four independent cushions connected by a belt passed around the outside. Bellini took as his starting point Le Corbusier’s Grand...
