Description
Summary
Teak Capella sofa, 3 seat.
Designer: Illum Wikkelsø
Produced by: Niels Eilersen
Country: Denmark
Date: Early 60s
Material: Teak frame and grey fabric covered foam cushions
This rosewood three seat sofa designed by Illum Wikkelso has had the webbing and cushions replaced. The original seat cushions and covers were so worn and thin it was like sitting directly on the strapping and not very comfortable.
The seat cushion covers can be removed for cleaning or be replaced.
The sofa has been kept in a pet free, smoke free, and child free home.
It has been replaced by a slightly larger sofa, hence the sale.
There is minor wear to the frame and cushions. Condition photos can be shared on request.
