About the Item
Rare 1950s French Teak and Cane Sofa – Mid-Century Modern
Description:
A striking and rare example of 1950s French modernism, this teak and cane sofa beautifully complements the matching armchairs from the same era. Crafted with architectural precision, the sofa’s design combines bold, geometric teak framing with the natural warmth of handwoven cane—offering both structure and softness in equal measure.
Constructed from solid teak, the sofa exudes a timeless sophistication with its angular arms and gently sloped backrest, echoing the spirit of designers like Pierre Jeanneret. The double-panel caned back and seat are flawlessly executed, creating a breathable, airy feel that enhances comfort without sacrificing elegance.
The low profile and wide proportions make this piece ideal for relaxed, lounge-style seating. Its clean lines and natural materials allow it to integrate seamlessly into a variety of interiors—from curated mid-century spaces to contemporary minimalist settings. The teak has developed a rich, even patina over time, lending the piece character and warmth.
Whether styled as a stand-alone statement or paired with the matching chairs (also available), this sofa brings a refined French modernist aesthetic into any space. It’s particularly suited for collectors, designers, and enthusiasts of authentic 20th-century design looking for pieces with both aesthetic presence and historical significance.

Mid-Century Australian Modern Teak Sofa & Armchairs by Parker Furniture, 1950s
By Parker Furniture
Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
This impressive set of sofa and two armchairs was designed and produced by the Australian company Parker Furniture in 1956. Parker has a legacy of creating some of the finest Mid-Century furniture. These eco-friendly seats are no exception. In an elegant, deep design with perfect proportions, there are simple pillows covered with a characteristic designer material in the color of royal blue, which complements the scultured structure of the frame. The cushions can be raised and the pieces have a spring frame. Elegant, aerodynamic arches are embedded in a low-line solid teak frame that creates an ultra-streamlined 20th century classic. Parker reflects the lightness of form present in the best Mid-Century design and this highly organic living-room set by Parker are a great example of a coveted modernist style. Clean lines and a relaxed profile come together to create a comfortable and stylish pair with a timeless feel. The beauty of these elements can be seen in thoughtful details. The sharp angles visible in the armrests and rear slats add sophistication to this forward-looking design. The set is signed with a label on the wooden frame and an insert on the cushions. Sleek low-back style and sophisticated design are examples of Parker's form from the 1950s.
Armchair has 75x69x73cm. The height of seat is 42 cm
Parker Furniture began as ‘Dagger and Parker’, a partnership formed between craftsman Alf Dagger, and salesman Jack Parker, after the depression era. From humble beginnings, the company quickly grew, making government tender furniture. Originally, the company made mainly traditional style furniture – reproductions of antique or art deco styles. In the mid 1940s, Tony Parker...
