Product description
With the DS-50, de Sede created a lounge chair that remains one of the most impressive designs from the Swiss leather furniture manufacturer to this day. Its distinctive patchwork variant, generous proportions, and exceptional seating comfort make this model a sought-after classic of high-end international vintage design.
The example offered here, together with its original ottoman, is in exceptionally good, almost new condition. The high-quality whiskey-colored buffalo leather has a warm, natural appeal and displays a beautiful, even surface. Both the leather and upholstery are remarkably supple, full, and comfortable, while the characteristic patchwork seams impressively highlight the craftsmanship. Both the armchair and the ottoman are in a very well-maintained condition with only minimal age-related signs of use.
The sculptural design of the DS-50 is characterized by its wide, leather-covered side elements and elegantly rising backrest. At the same time, the sophisticated construction ensures an incomparably relaxed seating experience. The backrest can be continuously adjusted simply by shifting one's body weight, allowing for a fluid transition from an upright sitting position to a deep, comfortable reclining posture. In combination with the matching ottoman, this creates a level of seating comfort that impressively confirms de Sede's legendary reputation as a manufacturer of some of the most comfortable leather armchairs of the 20th century.
De Sede's history began in 1965 in Klingnau, Switzerland, as a small saddlery and developed within a few years into one of Europe's most renowned furniture manufacturers. To this day, the name de Sede stands for uncompromising quality, masterful leather craftsmanship, and furniture that lasts for generations. Characteristic is the use of exceptionally high-quality leathers, processed with traditional craftsmanship, lending each piece of furniture its unmistakable character.
The DS-50 impressively combines all these qualities: luxurious material, outstanding craftsmanship, iconic design, and exceptional comfort. An authentic Swiss design classic for collectors, design lovers, and all those who appreciate uncompromising quality.
