AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Mae West Lips Sofa is modeled after the lips of the American actress and sex symbol Mae West. The first examples were designed by Salvador Dalí as a Dadaist-surrealist sculpture in 1936.

The reproduction offered here dates from the 1970s and is an absolute rarity!

Wooden frame, upholstered with pink satin fabric (here I'm not entirely sure) in good used condition with light signs of age and spots.

The provocative piece of furniture is so popular that it is instantly recognizable.
