Heals hepburn 4 seater sofa in leather grain light grey - heals uk furniture

Combining classic and contemporary styles is a trademark of Paola Navone's designs, and with its mix of mid-century silhouette and sleek modern upholstery the Hepburn Large Sofa has her name sewn-in. Designed and crafted in southern Italy, this exquisitely tailored sofa comes in a choice semi-aniline or suede soft leather exhibiting the timeless styling of its Hollywood namesake. Setting elegant leather against a hardwood frame, the Hepburn has all the clean lines, proportions and solid rectangular forms one would expect of mid-century furniture. Beautifully crafted and upholstered in southern Italy, each of the four long cushions is embellished with two rows of leather covered buttons with other period details including matching piping throughout and lightly tapered dark wenge wood feet. While the deep, low seat is very much in-keeping with the vintage feel it also makes this 3-seater piece the ideal sofa to fall back into and watch a classic Hollywood film. Such comfort is thanks to a pre-stretched elasticated webbing in conjunction with foam core seat and back cushions with a fibre topper. These modern features enable the user to sink into this sofa while a slightly angled back that is also slightly raised above the armrests provides a gentle recline and plentiful posture support. For over thirty years, Paola Navone has crossed the boundaries of design blazing a trail in an Italian scene dominated by men. Part of the avant-garde design movements Alchimia and Memphis, Navone has a particular talent for rediscovering design from the past and bringing it to life in new, contemporary forms. Part of a range of 1950s styled furniture, the Hepburn is also available as a medium 2-seater sofa armchair and matching footstool.
