The exposed solid oak frame suspends an elegantly sculpted back that contours to your body like it was made for you.

The buttery soft ORIGINAL upholstery is in good vintage condition and will surprise you with its durability and comfort.

Everyone who sees this sofa croons then asks to sit on it. Everyone who sits on it is immediately immersed in comfort and is in disbelief at how perfectly it contours and supports their bodies, regardless of their size or build.

Jules Heumann served in the South Pacific after attending UC Berkeley, and then his family business Metropolitan Furniture. He became their lead designer with a number of revolutionary concepts, including the iconic sling sofa. Later, the company was purchased by Steelcase Coalesse.

I believe the upholstery is leather, but can't be certain... it might be a high grade Naugahyde but it's softness. texture, and durability really feels like leather to me.

The color is on the creamy ivory side of whites, but not yellow, and not blinding pure white. less
