Two-seat Maralunga sofa designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina, in green fabric, Italy origin, 169 cm wide, 85 cm deep and 72 cm high, mid‑century modern, estimated period 1990–2000, in good used condition with minor age-related marks.
Description from the seller
Iconic Maralunga sofa, designed by Vico Magistretti in 1973 for Cassina. It is a historic piece of Italian design, winner of the Compasso d’Oro in 1979. Features: Two-seat model with a width of 168 cm, a rare and highly sought-after size for smaller spaces compared to the three-seat version.
Structure in expanded polyurethane and down feather padding, which guarantees exceptional comfort: soft, welcoming and enveloping.
Adjustable backrests with the famous 'ears' system (the headrests can be tipped down or left raised), distinctive and functional feature of the model.
Upholstery in original vintage green fabric. The green color gives an elegant and natural flavor, with a nice depth typical of vintage fabrics.
Condition:
Original vintage from the 1970s. The fabric shows a natural patina of time with signs of use consistent with age (slight wear on edges and high-contact points, some creases and small discoloration), but these do not affect the structure or overall beauty. In the context of vintage furnishings these signs enhance the piece’s authentic charm. A sofa of great character, with a timeless design, that combines extraordinary comfort with a strong personality. Perfect in both modern interiors and in more classical or eclectic contexts, it remains one of the most loved and recognizable models of 20th-century Italian design.
