Description from the seller

Designed in the 1960s by Ilmari Tapiovaara for Artek, the Kiki sofa is a celebrated example of Finnish modernism, known for its light, architectural frame and exceptional comfort. This version is reupholstered in high-quality beige Italian wool, adding warmth and sophistication while highlighting the sofa’s clean lines.

The minimalist steel frame supports generously cushioned upholstery, creating a balanced contrast between structure and softness. True to Tapiovaara’s design philosophy, the Kiki sofa is both visually refined and highly functional, making it suitable for contemporary living spaces, offices, or design-led interiors.

This example is in good condition, with the heavy wool showing no notable signs of wear. The frame is clean, solid, and stable, reflecting the exceptional quality of materials and craftsmanship.
