Grete – 1940’s Two Seater Sofa

Grete is a wonderful example of the early midcentury designs we love so much at Stedsans. With a gently arced back and more traditional upright design this sofa is perfect in its simplicity. Grete’s stunning printed linen upholstery is designed and hand-drawn by conservation biologist Susy Paisley.

  • Description

DIMENSIONS:
Length: 158cm, Depth: 73cm, Height: 82cm
Seat Depth: 51cm, Seat Height: 41cm

Grete’s frame is strong and sturdy with an classic 40s design, It has been reupholstered in a beautiful printed Newton Paisley linen. The fabric is from the Cactus Mexicanos series which tells the story of the incredible diversity of cacti in Mexico. These unusual forms give the fabric design a contemporary feel, and the pops of magenta, a common flower colour for this group, give great vibrancy to the cloth.

I often use herringbone fabrics on my refurbished I often use herringbone fabrics on my refurbished pieces, I love the sense of texture they give to upholstery without being a full on pattern, (& fabrics with different colour tones are also more forgiving of marks). 

My Ingvar sofa has been restored in a wonderful green herringbone from Abraham Moons, it adds real interest & suits those clean midcentury lines perfectly.💚

Swipe left for more photos & you can find Ingvar’s details on the website (link in bio). Just drop me a line if you’d like a fabric swatch or to come and see him in person to do the all important comfort test! ✨
