Scandinavian 3-seater convertible sofa bed, click-clack bench

Large convertible bench from the 1950s, 1960s, metal frame, armrests and central crosspiece in light beech. The sturdy metal frame has been lightly sanded and covered with a special gray iron paint. The light wood parts, with cut sides, characteristic of this period, in the scandinavian spirit, bring all its lightness to the whole, an airy and structured side. Formerly varnished, they have been cleaned, and bear traces of use well captured in photos (some taken very very close!) for a purchase in complete confidence! The casters on the rear legs allow handling for a transition from the bench to the bed in an instant. It opens by slightly raising the backrest part on the left and right to release it from its side notches and tilts downwards to rest on the two feet hidden in the backrest structure and thus offer a bed of 120x190cm. This authentic bench is equipped with its original mattress and fabric (just great!). The two genuine period upholstered spring mattresses are in good condition and provide a very comfortable seat. The fabric is worn, stained, patched (see photos), but so typical that we deliberately left it. We have placed a navy blue fabric on one of the photos to show you the result with a more modern plain fabric, if you wish to change it: in beige, gray, black…, why not in duck blue! The mattresses measure 60cm deep, 190cm long and 14cm thick, a knotting system allows the backrest mattress to be attached to the metal structure. The overall dimensions of this bench in the seated position are 208cm wide (measurement taken at the armrests), 85cm high, 85cm deep in total. The depth of the metal part of the seat alone is 61cm. Total weight: approximately 60 kg.
