About the Item

his rare and exceptionally comfortable "Model 760" three-seater sofa, designed by Hugo de Ruiter for the internationally respected Dutch maker Leolux, is a standout piece of Mid-Century European design. Originating from the 1970s, it embodies the era's focus on organic forms and high-quality, long-lasting materials. The sofa features thick buffalo leather upholstery, renowned for its luxurious feel and durability, presenting a warm, inviting presence. The visible "fat wrinkles" in the hide are a testament to the leather's premium quality, adding an authentic, textural character to the piece. It is a brilliant example of the Dutch contribution to global modern design, hand-selected and imported directly from the Netherlands. The design emphasizes deep, enveloping comfort, characterized by its generous proportions and supple leather finish, which has attained a gorgeous, light patina consistent with its history. Included with the sofa are two matching leather throw pillows, original to the piece, which complete the designer's vision for comfort and aesthetic harmony. The quality of Leolux craftsmanship is evident in the sturdy construction, designed to be a "friend for life"—a philosophy often championed by designer Hugo de Ruiter. Offered in original condition, the sofa shows only visible, light wear consistent with its age and use. The well-defined wrinkles and light wear only add to its authentic charm and well-lived history, affirming the material's integrity over time. This "Model 760" is an attractive, durable, and unique centerpiece that beautifully anchors a high-end living space, blending casual confidence with creative warmth. We invite inquiries for additional photos or further details on this special piece of Dutch design history.
