Description
This dynamic and well designed Mid-Century Modernist Tete a Tete Sofa in Walnut & Platinum Velvet W/Brass Sabots is by Edward Wormley for Dunbar and originates from the United States, Circa 1950. Features a well proportioned geometric composition with L shaped back and armrests mirroring one another on either end of the sofa. The supports are formed in a beautifully finished Walnut with Brass Sabots adding additional detail and protection. The piece is newly reupholstered in a stunning platinum velvet, with evenly spaced and thoughtfully achieved button detailing along the surface of the seat.
