About the Item

Striking Dutch Mid-Century U-shaped modular sofa manufactured by Gelderland in the 1970s. This sculptural seating arrangement features four individual curved sections—two center units and two end modules with low, sloped armrests—that form a generous, half-circle silhouette when combined. The shape is both inviting and architectural, ideal for open living spaces, conversation pits, or statement-making commercial interiors. Freshly reupholstered in luxurious Knoll gray “Smoke Oh La La” velvet, the sofa pairs rich texture with refined curves and understated glamour. The soft gray hue enhances the piece’s modernist roots while adding a contemporary update to its bold form. Each section is freestanding and modular, allowing for flexible reconfiguration if desired. In otherwise original condition, with some visible wear to the non-upholstered elements consistent with its age and use. A quintessential example of Dutch modernism’s focus on quality construction, comfort, and enduring style.
