Description
Mid Century Modern circa 1950s chrome plated steel frame sofa by Kurt Thut. Exquisite design and construction. Conjured from the mind of Swiss architect and designer, Kurt Thut. Ahead of it’s time, this piece easily conforms with contemporary aesthetic, despite it’s being designed in the mid 1950s. In similar form to Van Der Rohe’s Barcelona chair. This 3-seat full size couch features the original leather strap supports and brown vinyl upholstery. Straps are tight and intact. Button tufted and pleated, with the stark contrast of the dark cushions against the gleaming chrome frame. The materials speak to the movement toward industrial modern machine age while maintaining finesse. Thut’s early work rarely comes to market. This sofa in particular is a rare piece… with no record of coming to the American market in the past 15 years. Investment grade, make this masterful 20th Century design work a part of your collection.
