AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful and very comfortable modular seating set in red corduroy, Germany, 1960s.

The set consists of a total of 4 armchairs and a footstool/ottoman.

3 of the armchairs have been bolted together to form a 3-seater sofa. If they were separated, you would see the holes in the fabric along the lower sides.

Alternatively, you could configure 2 armchairs with armrests and a 2-seater without armrests.


Country: Germany
Year: 1960s
Material: Corduroy

Armchair
Width: 78 cm (62 cm without armrests)
Height: 72 cm
Seat height: 38 cm
Depth: 77 cm

Sofa
Length: 200 cm
Height: 72 cm
Seat height: 38 cm
Depth: 77 cm


On 2 of the seat sections, the fabric appears to have been sewn together at some point, causing the slit to overlap slightly (see photos).

As we deal in vintage furniture, signs of use are unavoidable and part of the nature of pre-owned items. We therefore only draw attention to more significant flaws and damage in separate photos. Nevertheless, we always do our best to document the condition of the items as accurately as possible.

Under Section 25a of the German VAT Act (UStG), the goods are subject to the margin scheme; VAT is not shown separately on the invoice.

Seller's Story

Since we can remember we felt attracted to beauty and exceptional things. Aesthetic has always been more than something superficial for us. It was something magic going much deeper than the surface, creating positive feelings and energies. Harmonies, sacred proportions, colors and materials combined with time, create their very special energies and are mostly things that hardly can be described but always can be felt. To define beauty would be far to philosophical, but we think, if something touches you by the way it looks and gives you good energy at the same time, then it would define our personal definition of beauty. And if beauty is something that has no other purpose than making you feel good just by the way it looks, then beauty is something we surely do not want to miss in our lives. We thank existence for giving us all those unique materials and designs and all the talented designers and craftsmen for bringing their visions and abilities to life and sharing it, to bring us purpose combined with joy. We are glad to have the platform Catawiki where we can share our passion for extraordinary and beautiful things with like-minded people. Bülent Usta & Sarah-Larissa Kolmeder
