This piece is made of high quality beech wood and is newly upholstered in light grey kvadrat fabric. The sofa has a very “open” design, showing it’s structure and the used techniques from every angle. The details are really impressive, so is the unique feature of one reclining side and the leather streps that keep that side in place.

The spokeback sofa has a unique history: it was designed in 1945, but didn’t fit the fashion of that time. It turned out that Wegner was a true visionair, because after the sofa did get produced in 1963, it would grow to be one of Wegner most populair designs. It was copied many times, this original piece is a very rare find. A beautiful piece of Scandinavian design history that would make a true eye-catcher in any modern or Scandinavian interior.

It remains in very good, vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use, preserving an amazing patina. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
