Three-Seater Striped Sofa
Kaare Klint
£12,000
Description
A high-back oak framed sofa designed by Kaare Klint and made by Rud Rasmussen. With a beautiful crisscross frame-work below the seat, the sofa is upholstered in Klint's original 'Greek Fabric', designed in 1932 in collaboration with Gerda Henning and the dyer Ejnar Hansen. The fabric consists of a repeating pattern formed from stripes of different widths. These marry perfectly with the construction and scale of the sofa, the crenellation detail of the upholstery add to this effect.
