Iconic De Sede DS-140 Sofa (Navy Blue) – Circa 1980

Centrepiece of Swiss design: the DS-140 sofa from de Sede, an iconic creation by Reto Frigg. This model, a true engineering feat from the 1980s, is famous for its unique world-first rotating mechanism. The two seats pivot 90° independently of each other, instantly transforming this sculptural sofa into two facing or side-by-side chaise longues for absolute comfort. Features of the piece: • Edition: 1980s/1990s. • Material: Very high-quality de Sede leather, navy blue (deep and elegant). • Details: Black tubular steel frame, adjustable headrest mounted on chrome slats. Protective fabric under the seats branded "De Sede" confirming its authenticity. Condition ("As is"): This sofa is an authentic piece that has lived. The leather shows a marked patina and signs of use (folds, superficial marks), giving it an inimitable vintage character without compromising its sturdiness. Note a small discreet tear on the technical protective fabric under the frame (invisible once the sofa is in place). The rotation and tilt mechanism works perfectly. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an icon of high-end design for lovers of patinated furniture.
