Description from the seller

This set is a timeless icon of British design, perfect for imparting a strong vintage, industrial, or eclectic character to a living room, a professional office, or a retail display.

•
•
3-Seater Sofa: Length 200 cm | Width (Depth) 100 cm | Height 67 cm

Condition report:
The internal structure, wooden frames, and springs of all three pieces are healthy, robust, and perfectly stable.
However, the exterior leather is in poor condition / to be restored. It shows a marked patina of time with evident wear, widespread discolorations, and lightened areas on the seating cushions.
As highlighted in the detailed photographs, there are deep scratches, cracks, and a significant open tear in the capitonné leather along the backrest/armrest of one piece, with partial leakage of the inner padding material. The set requires a deep cleaning, conditioning of the leather, or targeted restoration depending on the buyer’s preference.
Note: Given the bulky nature of the lot, in-person pickup is preferred, or shipping via a specialized courier can be arranged entirely at the buyer’s expense and organized by the winning bidder.
