About the Item
Lodovico Acerbis for Acerbis, sofa, model 'Gem', leather, acrylic, chromed metal, Italy, 2002
True to its name, the Gem sofa by Lodovico Acerbis for Acerbis is a rare and refined example of early twenty-first-century Italian design, distinguished by its clarity of structure and innovative use of materials. Designed in 2002, the sofa reflects Acerbis’ ongoing exploration of furniture as an architectural system rather than a purely decorative object. The defining elements of the design are the side frames made of transparent black acrylic. These panels serve as both structural supports and visual boundaries, giving the sofa a light, almost immaterial presence despite its solid construction. At the time of production, the acrylic frames could be selected in various colours, underscoring the experimental and contemporary character of the design. The structure is completed by horizontal chromed metal tubes, which visibly support the seating and back cushions. In contrast, the cushions are upholstered in black leather, introducing comfort while maintaining a sober and restrained appearance.
Kindly note that the sofa is in good, used condition with some signs of use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.

Sofa Daybed in Black Leather and Steel
Located in Waalwijk, NL
Johannes Spalt for Wittmann, sofa or daybed, leather, chrome-plated steel, Austria, 1960s.
This mid-century modern sofa is designed by the acclaimed Austrian furniture designer Johannes Spalt. The design is characterized by a solid construction based on sharp lines and angular shapes noticeable in the body of the seat and the chromed steel base, underlining the clear structured design. The metal legs elevate the seat in a graceful way, which establish an open and more transparent look to the whole unit. The tufted seat with buttons is upholstered in black leather. As outcome, this creates more visual interest and adds a graphical touch to the quite simplistic design. By only one hand movement the 'Constance' transforms from a comfortable sofa to daybed. A very elegant and also nifty technique.
Johannes Spalt (1920-2010) was a postwar Austrian architect. In 1952 he founded the collective "Arbeitsgruppe 4" together with Wilhelm Holzbauer, Friedrich Kurrent and Otto Leitner. Their ideas and designs are still a great example of Austrian architecture...
