Product description
An icon of Scandinavian design by Arne Norell, the Cromwell, designed in 1961, is an example of timeless modernism, where simplicity of form meets exceptional comfort. For decades, the sofa has remained one of the most recognizable pieces of Swedish design.
This piece boasts a stunning natural leather with a beautiful, authentic patina, highlighting its history and unique character. The leather is in shades of earthy brown. Loose seat and back cushions provide exceptional comfort, while subtly angled armrests and sturdy wooden legs lend a light feel. This design will complement both minimalist and classic interiors.
Cromwell embodies the quintessence of Arne Norell's philosophy – creating durable, functional, and exceptionally comfortable furniture, crafted from the highest quality natural materials. The distinctive combination of solid wood and fine leather ensures that the sofa gains even greater aesthetic value over time.
The Cromwell sofa reflects the aesthetics of Scandinavian design and modernist expression, time-honored by many years of tradition.
Arne Norell (1917 to 1971). An icon of Swedish design and a pioneer of post-war Scandinavian modernism, he founded Möbel AB Arne Norell in 1958, where he created lounge furniture renowned for its timeless comfort and unique construction. His style was distinguished by forgoing glue and screws in favor of innovatively combining raw wood, metal, and thick, natural leather using straps and buckles. Inspired by Danish minimalism, he designed the iconic Sirocco (safari) armchairs and the steel and leather Ari , which earned him the posthumous title of Furniture Masterpiece of the Year. Today, his original designs are still handcrafted in Sweden and are among the most sought-after items in the vintage furniture market
This sofa is in original vintage condition. It has traces of age and a natural patina. The leather has fading, pigment changes, repairs and signs of wear. The seat is 40 cm high.
