eBay watch: 1950s Italian sofa and two armchairs
Designer details are a little vague, but this Italian sofa and armchair set (spread out over two auctions) is certainly eye-catching.
The suite is said to be from the 1950s, which is very likely and as we said previously, comes from Italy. We love the curves, we love the contrast colours and we also love those period angled legs. We could probably live with the leatherette too.
No bids yet, with the two armchairs (pictured over the page) starting at £400, the sofa also at that price. While you're unlikely to find anything similar in a hurry, we suspect that price is a little on the high side. But if you love the 50s and get it at the opening price, it might work out at reasonable value.

Fabulous sofa! I love the color combination.

That's a beauty, I'd be in if it were red & black.
