Illum Wikkelsø Three-Seat ‘V11’ Sofa in Cognac Leather, Denmark, 1960s
About the Item
Illum Wikkelsø Three-seat ‘V11’ sofa in cognac coloured leather and wooden pyramid legs.
Perfect proportions is what makes this V11 sofa by Illum Wikkelsø so special. The leather runs all the way through, also at the back, making this sofa a perfect item to place anywhere in your house, even free-standing in the middle of the room. The cushions have been refilled with goose feathers and the leather was thoroughly inspected, cleaned and conditioned. The sofa provides comfort in a way that you may expect from a sofa like this. Perfect for sitting and doing naps and very sturdy.
This sofa comes in the most wanted colour: cognac. The leather (no rips or tears or reparations) has a very natural appearance, almost organic and is still in a very good condition. The sofa could work very well to balance a maybe more industrial interior or to complement spaces with lots of plants for example. The very outspoken tropical wood pyramid legs are an interesting detail and also provide the sturdiness that this heavy sofa needs. The proportions and placement of the pyramid legs, the trademark of Illum Wikkelsø, is very pleasant.

- Corner Sofa Blond Wood and Fabric, Italy, 1950'sBy Ico ParisiLocated in Amsterdam, NLCorner sofa in blond wood and fabric,, Italy, 1950's What stands out most in this low corner bench are the recesses in the framework and the 9 straight, tapered, squared stiletto legs that are so typical for that period in Italy. As you can see the backrest is optional and was probably designed later to give it some extra comfort. Back in the days these sofas were mostly used for very practical purposes like a quick coffee or pasta. This sofa would work very well in a corner of course but strangely enough this rectangular sofa also works very well in the middle of a room for example with a round table and two chairs...Category
