Vintage Osaka sofa by Martin Visser for 't Spectrum – a design classic from 1969
This characterful Martin Visser sofa, model Osaka, was designed in 1969 for the Dutch pavilion at the World Expo in Osaka, Japan. Part of an iconic furniture collection named after Japanese cities, this two-seater sofa exudes the understated elegance and sleek design language for which Visser is so renowned.
The chrome-plated steel tubular frame supports two generous seats, upholstered in warm brown leather that has been beautifully aged. The original upholstery, chrome, and padding are in excellent vintage condition. The padding has been professionally replenished in several places, and the webbing has been subtly replaced – completely in keeping with the original look.
The soft cushions, the low seat height of 40 cm, and the refined lines make this sofa a comfortable and visually light addition to any room. A unique piece of Dutch design history, perfect for the lover of minimalism with a soul.
