Extremely rare four-seat model of Marco Zanuso's 1951 elliptical ' IX Triennale' sofa with brass legs.

The sofa is finished in new 'Musco' ,color code ' 01 / 00' 100% mohair pile fabric by high quality Dutch manufacturer DE PLOEG. The elliptical 'triennale' sofa was manufactured by Arflex, Italy and offered in either two, three or four seat variants, the three seater is the more commonly seen model, we have not seen a four seater in the flesh before, we only knew of its existence through an original period Arflex catalog that we are lucky to have in our library. As stated in Baroni's 1981 tome on the history of the company 'ARFLEX 51-81' the 'triennale' sofa was often seen complementing Zanuso's 'lady' and 'senior' lounge chairs, we can see this stunning combination in many original period Arflex advertisments. This 'triennale' elliptical sofa was produced with two further seating options either with fixed ie sewn in attached cushions or loose cushions, this sofa has the more practical option with loose cushions. Zanuso's elliptical form 'Triennale' sofa combines beautifully with his 'lady' and 'senior' lounge chairs as well as Michel Kin...
