Vintage Maralunga sofa by Vico Magistretti for Cassina, Italy 70s

Reupholstered in blue velvet fabric! The Maralunga sofa, designed by Vico Magistretti, is celebrated for its timeless design and comfort. Its standout feature is an adjustable backrest, allowing users to switch between a low and high position to suit their comfort. This innovation is achieved through a simple bicycle chain mechanism embedded within the foam cushion. The sofa's soft padding and inviting shape enhance its appeal, making it a popular choice for those seeking both style and functionality. One of the most influential architects and designers in the 1960s, Vico Magistretti was a prominent exponent of Italian design. A great advocate of mass production, he was fascinated by the possibility of reproducing an object several times to ensure furniture for everyone, as the Bauhaus motto states. For Magistretti, a good design object can and must last 50 or 100 years. Some of his creations have become true icons and are still in production. Dimensions: 170cm width X 80cm depth X 70cm height.
