Karpen of California Sculptural Gondola Sofa
About the Item
Exceptionally rare Karpen of California gondola sofa in original, as-found condition. A striking, sculptural design with a wave-like depiction. It is, without exception, furniture in art form. This is a project in need of full restoration. A rare opportunity to restore and choose the fabric of new owners choice.
I found an interesting blog about a similar sofa that has undergone an exceptional restoration. Helpful to see the potential of this sofa once restored. To view Google "california karpen sofa rides the waves".
