Low Mid-Century Modern Six-Piece Sectional Sofa in Jack Lenor Larsen Upholstery
Mid-Century Modern low sectional sofa composed of six modules (two oversized ottomans, three armless seats, and one corner seat) all upholstered in Jack Lenor Larsen fabric and supported by caster wheels (ca. 1960s, USA).
Relatively small scale and low profile for a sectional sofa (not recommended for tall people given its height and overall scale).
Fabric is faded – some pieces more than others. Specifically, one of the two ottomans was likely stored out of the sun, as its pattern is less faded than the other pieces.
Additionally, there are some stains to the fabric (sofa has been steam-cleaned, but these spots remain) along with snags throughout and wear to the inner foam, which will eventually need to be replaced. Structurally sound, despite the loss of firmness caused by the aging foam. Can be used as is, despite its age/wear.
There are some dimensional disparities between like pieces, given the varying signs of age of each, but rough specs are as follows:
Ottomans (x 2) – H: 15.25″ x L: 33″ x D: 33.5″
Armless Seats (x 3) – H: 24.5″ x L: 27″ x D: 34″ x Seat Height: 14.5″
Corner Seat (x 1) – H: 24.75″ x L: 32.25″ x D: 34.63″ x Seat Height: 15″
Overall dimensions when displayed in the configuration of the main image: H: 24.75″ x L: 119.25″ x D: 94.63″x Seat Height: 15″ (approximate).
