About the Item

The Pangolin pleated leather sofa is designed by Egg Designs and manufactured in South Africa. This Sofa was inspired by the plight of the fragile Pangolin, the most illegally trafficked mammal in the world. These beautiful creatures are cared for by the Pangolin Men of Zimbabwe, as part of the Tikki Hywood Trust and 10% of the sales of each sofa is donated to the trust. In the wilds of Zimbabwe, five men are taking an afternoon stroll through the bush. Their steps are slow and unhurried as they wait for their charges to catch up. It’s a process that happens every day. Each afternoon, as the desert sun starts to lower in the sky, the Pangolin carers each carry one of these four-legged pine cones into the bush where they can forage for dinner. After toting them over their shoulders they then carefully lower the Pangolin onto the pathway so that these mini Prehistoric creatures can search for ants and termites. This contemporary retro style sofa has a pleated leather back reminiscent of the overlapping scales on the Pangolins back. The internal structure is comprised of various densities of foam.
