sofas

This vintage Italian sofa was produced by two of the biggest names in twentieth century furniture.

Designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina in the 1970’s, the Maralunga lounge encapsulates the design philosophy of the era. Its bulbous proportions and sculptural forms also mean it is as relevant now as it was when it was created.

This retro Italian couch boasts an adjustable backrest to provide support for your head and neck. It features new pink bouclé upholstery.

Why we love it

There is very little point asking us how we feel about the Maralunga because we will always source one when we can.

This vintage Italian sofa is an example of what happens when a designer and a maker who were prepared to take a risk combine to make something different. And we’d argue it paid off.

Each seat back can be unfolded to provide more support for your neck or just to create a really cool sculptural look. You probably know we’re all about that.

We’ve restored the original leather of this vintage Cassina lounge is both true to the era it dates from and current. We do think about things, promise.

Why we love it:

Multiple densities of foam and no solid structure.
That. That's why we love it. That's why it's insanely
comfortable and perfect for flexible living spaces.

Easily moved by one person, this is a great option for
those who need to change the use of a space to work
from home, exercise or do the hoovering. And more
so, the unfolding seat and back rest means you can
really kick back after either.

To summarise, this a great option for those who like to
keen their snace flexihle and moving

Reupholstered in a durable, blue velvet. The sofa is in excellent condition and ready to enhance your sitting situation.

Why we love it:

Too Many cooks? Nonsense. 

Three heavyweight designers (creators of the MOMA inflatable sofa) collaborated to create this distinctive sofa for LIgne Roset. 

This piece comes with a formed plastic base, topped with blue suede and leather throw for extra comfort. We've had the leather topper remade black hide in a matt finish. 

As if that wasn't enough it  comes with a footstool all made to the same high spec.

Why we love it:

This little lad arrived to us in bad shape, but with a strip down, foam and fabric we are delighted to offer this fully re-loved original.

It's a great size, a great colour and super comfortable.

If you frequent this corner of the internet regularly, you’ll know how much we love Magistretti and Cassina, but this design is a particular favourite. The seat back can be unfolded to create a headrest — and a totally unique sofa.

Well worth a look.

Why we love it:

If ever there was a vintage cloud sofa then this is it. We would quite happily climb into this every day and let it give us a nice, warm hug forever and ever, amen. 

This Italian sofa also has some neat design features (as indeed all retro Italian lounges do). The low-profile and compact footprint mean you can bring it into the middle of the room; an exposed, wire frame makes this couch unique. None of your friends have one of these.

This curvy sofa comes in its original, brown velvet which offers the perfect contrast to the chrome details. It may have been a few years ago, but they knew they were doing. Theres a couple of marks to the upholstery, but they are minor and do not detract from its knock out design.

Why we love it:

We can’t be certain, but we have a feeling this vintage sofa was in Scarface. Okay, so we don’t actually have that feeling but we can picture it. This B&B Italia lounge presents 80’s excess but in a way that is very current.

The Baisity couch also boasts some unique design features. For example, the front is raised on castors, the back is lower than the front and it has floating arms at either end. All in all, it’s a strong look.

If you didn’t know, B&B Italia are a big deal in the design world. We know they made it because their logo is all over it. Nothing is a guarantee of quality but this comes close.

The sofa has been re-upholstered in a chunky check, but we've left the arms in the original leather and the floating B&B cushions to match.

We have taken it upon ourselves to reupholster this curvy sofa in a cream bouclé. New and on-trend, basically. You can tell those same friends you did it yourself. Secret is safe with us.

The leather has been professionally restored. There is a small hole on the middle seat cushion (pictured) but it's nothing that will get in the way of your enjoyment.

It is rare that you find vintage Italian furniture that has been so well looked after you are left wondering whether you have misunderstood the Belgian guy who decided to part ways with it.

But that’s where we are with this leather Maralunga sofa. If we didn’t know any better, we’d say this Cassina lounge was new.

The Magistretti Veranda sofa is a design classic and among the best pieces of 1980’s postmodern furniture. 

This vintage Italian sofa is highly adaptable. The headrest can be folded upwards and footrests can be folded out from under the seat to completely change the arrangement while still retaining a relatively compact footprint. On each seat, the back rest also reclines with two separate levers.  

Produced by Cassina, this vintage original Veranda sofa promises to be made to the highest standards. It has been re-upholstered in a striped linen to return it to excellent vintage condition.

Add iconic design to your home with this vintage Togo lounge by Ligne Roset.

Every piece of Togo furniture is created using just five pieces of foam. As you might expect, this means each seat is lightweight and extremely comfortable. What may surprise you, however, is just how sturdy these retro sofas are and how much support they offer.

Created by Michel Ducaroy in 1973, this Togo couch brings maximalist furniture design to your living room. It has been re-upholstered in lilac cotton velvet to return it to excellent vintage condition.

The IKEA Moment sofa is iconic 80’s furniture.

Inspired by the shape and structure of a shopping trolley, this vintage IKEA sofa is striking, sturdy and perfect for rooms with limited space—the open, wire-frame design prevents this small retro couch from becoming a dominant presence by allowing light to pass through and under the piece. When viewed from certain angles, the Moment lounge appears to float.

Created by Niels Gammelgaard, one of the biggest names in modern Scandinavian furniture, this retro two-seater sofa is as relevant now as it was when it was released. This item has been reupholstered in striped cotton to return it to excellent vintage condition.

Introduce iconic design into your living room with this vintage Grand Confort lounge.

Made from leather and polished steel, this striking sofa is built to last and for extensive use. The organic qualities of the upholstery work to soften the stark elements of the metal frame to create a perfectly balanced piece.

Designed by le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret), this retro couch brings the work of one of Europe’s most celebrated furniture designers to your home. It features the original upholstery, which shows some signs of wear commensurate with age, but remains in good condition.

A great shape, comfortable and versatile.

Textured, supportive and charming, this chair is ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and anywhere else you sit for hours at a time. The Alky chair’s relatively compact footprint means it will fit seamlessly into homes of all sizes; its high-quality build means it can remain a part of your set up for years to come.

Designed by Piretti for Castelli, this modernist lounge chair combines the work of two of the significant names in late twentieth century furniture design. It comes in the original upholstery, which is in very good condition.
