Mid Century Orange Sofa Compact by Eames for Herman Miller
Charles and Ray Eames designed the Eames Sofa Compact in 1954 based on a built-in sofa the couple had designed for their Pacific Palisades home in the 1940s. This freestanding version has been in continuous production ever since. This vintage Eames Sofa Compact Sofa circa 1970 features original orange Knoll upholstery. The classic design is clean and minimalist - perfect for small spaces and providing a modern light and airy profile in large spaces. The sofa is extremely well-built and solid - the backrest features two foam pads with a reinforcing cord welting detail. Urethane foam seat cushions are supported by fabric-reinforced rubber webbing on a steel and wire-spring armature. The steel sofa frame is black enamel and the chrome-plated tubular steel legs have original “Insulated Domes of Silence” stainless steel glides. The sofa backrest folds up and down with ease. CONDITION Very good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use. Some scattered light stains to upholstery
