Description from the seller
Extraordinary daybed following the lines characteristic of the Mid-20th Century Modern Movement. It features a very lightweight metal frame supported by four slender square legs. The armrests open outward and are upholstered in faux leather, finished with tacks. The rectangular cushion or mattress rests on a slatted base and is upholstered in camel-colored chenille. The design adopts a decidedly modern aesthetic, prioritizing elegance, comfort, and simplicity—characteristics that make it easily combinable in both modern and more classical environments.
Modern Movement
The Modern Movement began in 20th-century architecture but soon extended to design. It emerged as a reaction and break from classical architecture, proposing a much more functional architecture and design, where form follows function, free of decorative artifices. Both in architecture and furniture, all decorative objects are omitted, focusing solely on utility, from which its beauty derives.
The shipping of the product will be paid for by the buyer according to its dimensions, weight, and destination. We will contact you to arrange the logistics and agree on the budget. Shipping costs include professional, custom-made packaging and personalized shipping with a tracking number and warranty. The buyer will be responsible for paying import duties and any associated taxes in the destination country, if applicable. Please note the seller's exemption from liability regarding potential customs charges, as these are levied in the destination country and the amount payable is determined by that country's customs. If an export permit is required, the costs will be borne by the buyer. The cost varies progressively based on the value of the artwork to be exported.
