ILLUM WIKKELSØ, a sofa 'Australia Modell 50-4' for Søren Willadsen, with ottoman

About the Item

The low lines typical of Danish design make The Australia a perfect piece of furniture. A subtle internal spring back and firm cushions create a comfortable seating experience. Much of Wikkelso's work was inspired by nature, perhaps the vast open landscapes of Australia inspired this rare and impressive sofa. Partly worn. Stains. Marks. Renovated and upholstered 1998.
