About the Item

Edra Loveseat Sofa in Red Velvet--This is an Incredibly spectacular Spiral / Fibonacci Shaped Sofa!! This is a rare piece, an original Italian designer Edra Tatlin that is from a small production and not widely made. Unique and wonderful piece! Designed as a stunning center place in the room, and loosely based on the Tatlin tower, emblem of Constructivism. A modern totem, perfect also for public spaces. It allows new possibilities of seating, offering room for more people. A true work of architecture. A real Edra icon. Height 134 cm Wide range 210 cm Seat height 45 cm Depth 175 cm Base in plywood. Base frame in lacquered steel. Backrest frame in steel. Feet in chromed steel with PVC pads. Padding in polyurethane foam of different density. This Edra Tatlin is pre-owned, and it is in good vintage condition. Note: The Original price for a new Edra Tatlin is between 10,000-15,000 Euros! (see the last image attached here in this listing) Here we are selling for much less, because it is pre-owned. You can take advantage of this and it can be used as it is in your space, or further reupholstered to perfect it or change the color. Condition: Original upholstery, overall good, some minor imperfections in the fabric (no rips or tears but signs of use, such as stains and discolorations). You may want to reupholster. Looks good as it stands. It would benefit from a professional cleaning. You may want to reupholster it down the line and customize it to your space. However it is structurally sound and overall in good used condition. The chrome of the legs is in excellent condition with less than expected wear. Can certainly be used as is with some cosmetic imperfections. Please see the video and and images to further indicate condition. Tatlin Tower The "Third International Monument" by Vladmir Tatlin was designed shortly after the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917. Although this monument was never erected, it was conceived as a modernist steel. The building of the glass constructor would have said the height of the famous Eiffel Tower in France. The design of the Tatlin sofa was inspired by its iconic shape of the "tatlin tower" - its sculptural shape immediately becomes the center of every interior decoration in which it is placed. The cover is made of velvet, its inner spiral frame is the result of the exquisite technical design and the manufacture of molded stainless steel. Tatlin Sofa for museums, hotels & public places This unusual piece of furniture was designed by Marion Cananzi and Roberto Semprini for the label Edra. The sofa, which, because of its extraordinary shape, finds its place more in the hotel lobby or in the museum, since this is the place needed for this multifunctional sofa. The sofa in the middle of the room is inspired by the constructivist symbol of the Tatlin Tower. It offers various seating positions and space for several people. A true architectural masterpiece. Tatlin sofa in best quality The Tatlin sofa is based on the spiral Tatlin tower, which can be placed very well in the middle of a room when it is to become the star of the room. The sofa consists of a plywood base with metal fees, and the spiral is a real technical work of shaped and forged steel. The filling is made of polyurethane foam, which is covered with velvet.
