THIS FULL SUITE (Chairs & Sofa) SOLD WITHIN DAYS OF BEING LISTED IN iNVISeDGE FOR $3500 in 2018! (Regularly click on our NEWLY LISTED Category so you don’t miss any of our new finds!)
This listing is for the 1960’s 3-sectional sofa only but we also have a matching pair of chairs in a separate listing (go to our Feature Chairs category). This is an incredibly versatile item. It can be used as a 3-seater sofa or a 2-seater sofa with an extra easy chair. These 5 strand versions are heavy and very durable- the weight means they also stay together whilst in use. (This is not flimsy like some cane furniture.) This sofa would suit many spaces and if you move house, because it’s sectional, it’s very easy to move plus in a different configuration it could suit an entirely different space and lay-out. This gives this suite additional investment appeal- the versatility in the 3-sectional design means it will appeal to a wider cross-section of the market so it will sell more quickly and easily … and the design is so stunning … who would not do a double-take at this while they’re trawling online for furniture!

This 3-sectional sofa is vintage and overall in excellent condition for its age. The cane frames are brilliant- sturdy, strong and basically impossible to damage. All the joints are solid and strong with NO repairs or breakage. Cosmetically the frames present very well- they have minor signs of age and use but nothing that’s noticed. Some of the cane bindings may have come off but to be honest I don’t know if the sofa came with more bindings or not. These bindings are not structural- (they’re cosmetic.) __________
The cushions and covers are quite new- less than 5 years old I’d say. They have only minor signs of use. There are NO holes, NO significant wear and NO fraying to the upholstery- the fabric looks great overall and has minor wear only (on a couple of the cushions only and this is not noticeable). The covers have a few very minor marks from normal use that would wash out. They’re very feint so I didn’t bother washing them (there’s nothing that’s noticed). One cushion has a small stain (about 2cm by 0.5cm) but all the cushions can be flipped over anyway. This makes the suite really practical. The covers can be unzipped as well and machine-washed on the gentle cycle to keep them clean and fresh. This adds to the practicality. (Replace the covers to the cushions whilst still damp to prevent shrinkage.) The small stain should be reduced by treating it with stain remover and washing the cover as normal. (But as I said you can flip the cushions over anyway). __________
The cushioning is high quality and close to new (only about 4 years old). It shows NO degradation/sagging AT ALL. The cushions are firm and supportive for good comfort and support for long-term sitting. __________
