Daybed Cleopatra in white fabric by Dick Cordemeijer Auping Netherlands 1954

This iconic Cleopatra daybed was designed by Dick Cordemeijer for Auping in the Netherlands in 1954. A celebrated example of Dutch modernist design, it combines functional clarity with a strong architectural presence. The daybed features an elegant black metal frame paired with solid teak end pieces, creating a striking contrast between industrial materials and warm natural wood. Its low, elongated proportions and refined details are characteristic of Cordemeijer's innovative approach, balancing comfort with a graphically distinct silhouette. The mattress is covered in high-quality off-white fabric, highlighting the clean lines and timeless appearance of the design. In excellent condition, this Cleopatra daybed is both highly functional and visually striking. It works beautifully as a daybed, living room piece, or accent sofa, and is a true design icon perfectly suited to modern, minimalist, or mid-century interiors.
