Three Seater Black Leather Sofa Georg Thams Vejen Polstermøbelfabrik Model 64 Mid Century Vintage Retro MCM

Designed in 1964 by Georg Thams for Vejen Polstermøbelfabrik in Denmark.

This black leather three seater has a low slung profile, a typical design trait from the Danish and Norwegian 60s and 70s furniture era, with beautiful sweeping curves and winged armrests.

The black leather is the original upholstery from the 1960s, and has aged to perfection and looks fantastic.

These particular models are becoming increasingly hard to find, particularly in this sought after colour, size and type of leg.

Raised on solid splayed and tapered rosewood legs.
