European Mid-Century Modern Daybed in Pony Hide, Europe ca 1950s

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
This gorgeous daybed was inspired by classic mid-century European furniture design and simplicity. Pieces from the mid-century era, like this daybed, are characterized by clarity in design and extremely high-quality craftsmanship and choice of materials.

The streamlined solid wood frame of this model features a robust, fully upholstered top, and elegant, long wood legs. From the minimalistic design to the focus on the upholstery, this daybed has a distinctive look that relies on the unique texture of the pony hide. Pony Hair leather, also known as Pony Fur or Calf-Hair, is usually created from cow or goat hide. It is made from the hair side of the hide, whereas most leather is made from the non-hair side. Thanks to this, the shades, patterns and texture can vary, which is beautifully showcased on this daybed. The fully upholstered body has a square pattern that is not only unique, it highlights these subtle differences in colour as well. The design is completed with a cylinder-shaped pillow in a natural linen fabric that is secured to the body. The sleek look is the result of the clean lines, functional design and expert craftsmanship.

If there is a single common denominator for Mid-Century Modernism, it is not so much the design or form as the quality of the execution, the woodwork and the upholstery. This daybed excels in these areas, bringing modernism and quality to any space.
