It offers the clean silhouette, attention to detail and timeless (yet perennially modern) aesthetic that discerning collectors of Leleu's designs absolutely adore. The sofa sits on arched conical hind legs- lending the piece a subtle dynamism- and straight front legs realized in a beautiful ebonized walnut. The sofa features three back (and seat) cushions as well as geometric right angled arms that cantilever over the body- a distinctly modernist aspect of the design aesthetic. The cushions have been newly reupholstered in a luxurious smoked pewter velvet. With its clean modernist lines and refined color palate, this piece would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly reupholstered and is in excellent vintage condition.
