Charles Eames Sofa Compact
Located in Toronto, Ontario
A very rare and rather exceptional sofa compact by Charles Eames for Herman Miller.
This example is special for a few reasons.
It is a very early model as evidenced by the centre metal bracket. It is also a folding example. Later pieces were fixed in place.
This sofa also retains the original vintage Alexander Girard "giant stripe" textile. A very rare thing as most were reupholstered of originally upholstered in a basic vinyl or wool . This textile and construction dates the sofa to approx. 1959.
This is most likely the best example of a vintage Sofa Compact available for sale.
A true museum example.
