About the Item

On offer on this occasion is a huge, ultra-rare 3-Seat "Hydra Castor" sofa from the world renown Italian furniture house of Poltrona Frau. As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this Luca Scacchetti masterpiece, Poltrona Frau pieces are the epitome of contemporary European furniture design, are of peerless quality, and exhibit detailing and execution of an unrivalled standard.     In a world of temporary pleasures, Poltrona Frau create beautiful furniture that remains a joy forever, with none so sought-after, bespoke and desirable as this.     Poltrona Frau sofas presented in this spectacular order are rare enough on the pre-loved market but, dressed in this most stunning and tactile high-grade "Pelle Frau 51 SC" leather option in a striking, versatile pale-cream hue, they are as rare as Hen's teeth! Spectacularly sought-after as, whilst being as robust and hard-wearing as rhino skin, its softness and texture is simply divine to the touch. The perfect blend of luxury and practicality.       This sofa is in superb, impeccably-maintained condition, having seen light, infrequent use in its previous home, and is almost entirely free from fault, flaw or damage. Its hugely handsome order reflects the TLC and considerate use afforded it in the past but, as you would think normal when considering the nature and colour of this particular hide covering, it does possess a bare-minimum of visible, but inconsequential marks, as you would expect.     For the avoidance of doubt, please view the numerous images provided to confirm the superb condition and appearance of this piece. Beauty and quality in abundance.     Whilst it could not be considered truly-perfect due to the reasons stated above, it is guaranteed to meet the requirements of all but the most-uncompromising of perfectionists and, for someone looking for a sofa of high-design to position at the heart of their home, it is truly heaven sent! Without question, this superb piece possesses all the beauty and majesty you would expect from the finest contemporary furniture money can buy.     Dimensions-wise, the measurements of this sofa are H-69cm, W-200cm and D-73cm, and the breathtaking seating position this iconic informal-design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously upholstered composite-filled back, seat and arm cushioning, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms.     Costing in excess of £10,000 when new, for something of this rarity and provenance it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt it will serve and delight its new owner for many years to come.     Delivery of this sofa to most UK mainland addresses will cost £120, and can be organised on behalf of the winning bidder upon request using one of our hand-picked panel of specialist, fully-insured independent furniture couriers. Should I be able to help you further, feel free to message me.     For important payment, shipping, returns, cleaning and contact information, please see the relevant sections.     Warm regards,     Daniel.
