Description
Sectional sofa by Giuseppe Munari for Poltrona Munari, Italy, 1970's.
New in our collection: a large 6 piece modular sofa in dark blue velvet by Giuseppe Munari. Many configuration possible as you can see because all pieces can be moved separately creating endless opportunities to fill the room.
The sofa contains of 3 L-shaped tufted - chairs, one corner element, one end piece or around-the-corner piece and one ottoman or also an end piece. Altogether a very complete set that is very hard to find with 6 (!) elements. Many similarities with the Camaleonda from Mario Bellini can be seen but if you want to be original: this is your chance.
The sofa rests on 4 small wooden round legs and therefor is quite easy to move into any configuration. Lots of puzzling can be done as you can see in the pictures and I just chose a few configurations.
The dark blue velvet upholstery is still in very good condition but reupholstery is always a possibility to make this famous sofa look new again according to your wishes. (some light coloured wool would do great). In reupholstered condition these items sell for 6K per piece so count your blessings if you look at the current pricing as is.
The ottoman has a small white stain on it so you get one for free. I have not tried to remove it and probably with some steaming it comes off. The stain is not very much visible so no worries about that. It's still very very nice. -
