This very rare sofa was designed by Nanna Ditzel in 1949 and executed by cabinetmaker Knud Willadsen in Denmark, presumably in approximately six examples total. It features stained beech legs and upholstered fabric by Hanne Vedel. An earlier work co-developed by Ditzel and her husband Jørgen, the sofa is intended to be a conversation piece with two individual sections. This piece was acquired from a private Danish collection. Price excludes taxes, shipping, and crate.
