The piece features the distinctive moustache-shaped backrest, named for its softly curved, wave-like form. It is upholstered in cognac-toned full-grain leather that has developed a warm, natural patina over time. The surface retains its original charm, highlighting the authentic texture and depth of the leather.

The sofa’s solid wooden frame, deep seat, and rolled arms provide both comfort and stability. Decorative brass nailhead trim runs along the back and sides, accentuating the elegant silhouette of the design.

This sofa remains in very good vintage condition, showing only minor signs of age and use. The leather has been carefully cleaned and conditioned to maintain its suppleness and appearance.
