Vintage Mid-Century Scandinavian Modern Glamour Leather Black & Gold Sofa

This elegant, quilted sofa was designed by John-Bertil Häggström for the Swedish manufacturer Swed-Form, Skillingaryd during the 1970s. The sofa is upholstered in black natural leather with even quilting. The seat and backrest are separate elements, and large cushions are combined with inserts featuring snaps. The frame is made of gold-coloured metal, which further highlights its modernist aesthetics focused on the Hollywood Regency style. This highly comfortable sofa with an ergonomic shape is perfect for a living room or a restroom. The Hollywood Regency style is characterised by a bold use of colours and contrasts, often with metallic accents meant to signify both richness and comfort. The style is named after the Southern California film industry, which is characterised by the homes and estates of Hollywood actors and actresses from the Golden Age, roughly from the 1920s to the 1950s. John-Bertil Häggström belongs to the Association of Swedish Industrial Designers. After being part of the IKEA team and other furniture manufacturers, John-Bertil began his career as a freelance designer working for Swedish and international companies. He designs furniture for both commercial and residential purposes. Häggström has been honoured, among others, with the Japanese G-design Award. We have two sofas, but the price is for one of them. Both sofas are in original vintage condition with traces of age and natural patina. The pieces have minor scrapes and scratches. The colours of the products shown in the photos may differ slightly from the actual ones. This is due to individual monitor settings and lighting conditions – the photos were taken in artificial light, which may affect the perception of colours. However, we strive to ensure that the photos reflect the actual appearance of the product as faithfully as possible. The offer may include photos of the item in a living space, but these are for illustrative purposes only.
