Description
Designed by Brazilian modernist Percival Lafer, this bold sofa, model MP-091, is deeply inviting. The comfortable tufted cushion sits on sturdy straps, attached to the lower front and upper back of the jacaranda rosewood frame with dowels. Buckled straps at the sides and back give the cushion further form. The sofa retains its original cognac-colored suede upholstery.

Lafer label intact on frame.
