CONTACT US FOR OUR BEST DEAL

An exceptionally rare and coveted settee by Gio Ponti for Cassina, circa 1950s, with reupholstered white bouclé fabric cushions, refinished elm frames with incredible wood grain, signature slatted backs and sculptured arms.

Such an important design classic, this settee is accompanied by a pair of matching armchairs (available in another listing and can be purchased together as a set).

Cushions were reupholstered with a nubby white bouclé. We refinished the sculptural elm frames with a hand wax for a light sheen, retaining the age and accentuating the wood grain. Ideal set for collectors, investors or art and design, and interior designers looking for something incredible special for that important client.

This sculpted elm loveseat sofa by Gio Ponti for Cassina would work great in a Mid-Century Modern, Space Age Mod, Scandanavian Modern or Danish Modern home or penthouse apartment but could also look fantastic in a Post-Modern, Contemporary or Zen / Minimalism room. Also consider mixing it up in a Traditional, Transitional, Hollywood Regency, Classical or Art Deco room with a splash of juxtaposition. Would also be an apt choice in a commercial project such as a hotel lobby lounge or members club, creative design studio or high-rise executive office.
