About the Item

Throughout the 20th century, French designers refined the balance between elegance and functionality. The daybed, an iconic type of furniture, originating in the late 1600s, experienced a renaissance in recent centuries, evolving to favour comfort without compromising on aesthetics. This piece reflects that evolution with a clear modernist sensibility and refined craftsmanship. The daybed features a dark-stained wooden frame with clean, crisp lines that bring structure to its softness. The most striking element, and what sets this daybed apart is the tall backrest that perfectly showcases the elegant angularity of this piece. The back is upholstered and finished with a matching pillow, enhancing its comfort. The cushioned seat is thick and inviting, its beige upholstery contributes to a sense of understated luxury while contrasting gently with the darker tone of the wood. The bed rests on four conical legs finished with chrome-metal caps, lending the piece a touch of classical refinement. Though minimal in decoration, every element speaks to thoughtful proportion and precision. The daybed itself has long symbolised a space for rest and reading, and this piece embodies that tradition in a contemporary way. With its strong silhouette and harmonious use of materials, this daybed is ideal for interiors that value timeless elegance. It can function equally well in a formal living room, private study, or reading nook, offering both a sculptural presence and everyday usability. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. This daybed has been reupholstered recently in a premium fabric. Each of our items can be reupholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
