Roche Bobois “Mah Jong” Sofa & Table – In Missoni Fabric

About the Item

Hello Friends, and welcome to another unmissable offering from Lord Browns Furniture, the UK’s premier resource for fine Sofas and Chairs. On offer on this occasion is quite possibly one of the most-desirable and sought-after large-scale sofas available today, it being a rare opportunity to acquire a large-scale, gorgeous “Mah Jong Composition-Missoni” sofa, consisting of a number of sofa-units capable of making any number of seating-configurations, and a complimenting glass-topped cocktail-table, from the world renown French furniture house of Roche Bobois, and benefitting from the most stunning combination of fine, decorative fabrics from Missoni of Italy. As you will no doubt be aware by your interest in this Hans Hopfer masterpiece, Roche Bobois 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, Roche Bobois create beautiful furniture that remains a joy forever, and there can be no-better expression of that philosophy than this doyen of the seating-world Dressed in these most-impressive, high-grade, tactile and satisfying fabric options which, as you will see, possesses the vivid, striking appearance these pieces are famed for. Whilst being as robust and durable as rhino skin, the softness and texture of these fabrics is simply divine to the touch. In combination with the pillow-soft upholstery, these pieces provide a tactile-experience like few others. This sofa is in superb, original, impeccably-maintained condition, having seen light, irregular use in the family-area of its previous home. It only shows the most-modest signs of use, has the bare minimum of marks present (you will do well to find them, as there are only one-or-two and they are exceptionally-light) and only has a couple of small areas of lightening to the fabric (as the images will confirm, the colours remain wonderfully-vivid) but, equally, it has been used before (as you would expect) and, as a consequence, is definitely not truly-perfect. That said, in my experience, it is honestly as good as any Mah Jong you could ever hope to find of this type on the second-user market. The lacquered-finish to the coffee table also has some very-light marks around the bottom of the base too (where, i suspect, it has been brushed-against when being hoovered-around) but, as the images will confirm, are of modest or no significance. Please view the images provided to confirm its superb, original condition and breathtaking appearance. A more wonderfully-executed example of modern, informal seating is difficult to imagine and, with all of the possibilities it offers configuration-wise, is a truly accomplished and talented all-rounder. In its current fantastic condition, it would clearly meet the requirements of all but the true-perfectionist but, for someone looking for a piece of high-design to position at the heart of family life, it is truly heaven sent! This superb piece possesses all the beauty and majesty of the finest contemporary furniture money can buy, and is dressed in some of the most unashamedly-luxurious and satisfying fabrics imaginable. This incredible suite consists of 18 ottoman-cushions (each measuring H-19cm x W-95cm and D-95cm), 6 backrests sections, 2 corner-backrests and a glass-topped cocktail-table that can be employed however you see or prefer. As you will recognise from the images provided, we have chosen to double-cushion our seats (to achieve the most-likely seat-height to be used) and have created a 9-seat sofa configuration (as we would possibly expect it to be used) but, in our experience, as many people choose to single-cushion the seats than do not (in order to achieve huge-scale seating and create massive floor-coverage) too so, really, the possibilities are (almost) endless, and the decision as to how you use all of this exceptionally-flexible and practical seating is entirely yours. For reference, the U-shaped configuration pictured measures H-72cm x D-285cm x W-475cm, so hope this is helpful regarding understanding its considerable-scale. The breathtaking seating position this iconic modern-design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, generously-upholstered back and seat cushioning (which, as the images will confirm, is particularly soft and squishy), which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. Famously comfortable beyond compare. Costing in excess of £60,000 when new, 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 piece to most UK mainland addresses will cost £240, 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.
