About the Item

Hello Friends, and welcome to another unmissable offering from Lord Browns Furniture, the UK’s premier resource for fine Sofas and Chairs. On offer on this occasion is an iconic “Charles” 3-Section L-Shape Sofa (consisting of a CH156S, and a CH228 section) from the “Maxalto” range of seating from the world renown Italian furniture house of B&B Italia. As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this Antonio Citterio masterpiece, B&B Italia pieces are the epitome of contemporary European furniture design, are of peerless quality, and exhibit detailing and execution of an unrivalled standard. In a world of temporary pleasures, B&B Italia create beautiful furniture that remains a joy forever. Dressed in a most-gorgeous and tactile Italian woven-wool with, as the close-up image provided will illustrate, a weave consisting of green and crimson components which, in combination, balance to give the fabric a purple-appearance. Whilst being as robust and hard-wearing as rhino skin, the softness and texture of this high-grade wool is simply divine to the touch and offers beauty, durability and practicality in equal measure. Supplied with numerous complimenting back cushions. This piece is in superb, beautifully-maintained condition, having seen light, irregular use in the past. Its handsome order reflects the TLC and considerate use afforded it at its previous home, and is as carefully-maintained and well-presented as you could possibly hope to find. Please view the images provided to confirm its truly-exceptional condition and beguiling appearance. It remains an entirely-beautiful and achingly-elegant example of this seating icon with many, many years of distinguished service ahead of it. In its current condition, it will clearly meet the requirements of all but the true-perfectionist and, for someone looking for a piece of high-design to position at the heart of family life, it is truly heaven sent! This superb piece possesses all the beauty and majesty of the finest contemporary furniture money can buy. Dimensions-wise, when configured as pictured as an L-Shape, it measures 258cm across the left-side (as you look at the images, or the right-side if you were sat on the piece), is 230cm across the right-side, and stands 73cm high, and due to the sectional nature of this piece, rest assured that it dismantles easily into its 2 component sections, so is able to be transported, installed and rebuilt without issue. The breathtaking seating position this iconic modern-design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, generously upholstered feather-filled back and composite seat cushioning, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. Not only does it possess an aesthetic to die for, but it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo comfortable too! Costing in excess of £12,000 when new, it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt it will serve and delight its new owner for many years to come. Delivery of this piece to most UK mainland addresses will cost £180, and can be organised on behalf of the winning bidder upon request using one of our hand-picked panel of specialist, fully-insured independent furniture couriers. Should i be able to help you further, feel free to message me. Warm regards, Daniel.
