An iconic 1982 'Portovenere' three-seater sofa designed by Vico Magistretti for Cassina, featuring its signature adjustable ears/armrests and wrapped in a rare, sophisticated peach upholstery.
Designed in 1982 by the legendary Vico Magistretti, who also designed the Maralunga sofa, the 'Portovenere' sofa is a masterclass in Italian post-modern comfort and versatile engineering. This specific three-seater model is highly celebrated for its high, enveloping backrest and unique adjustable side panels. The armrests/ears can be seamlessly bent or folded flat, allowing you to instantly transform the sofa from an intimate, cocoon-like reading nook into an open, spacious lounge.
This piece is presented in a striking, soft peach hue (subtle pastel orange/pink undertone). The fabric texture perfectly highlights the sculptural curves and plush cushioning of Magistretti’s vision. It serves as a warm, sophisticated statement piece that injects authentic 1980s Italian elegance into contemporary or mid-century modern interiors.Excellent structural condition. The internal articulation mechanisms for the adjustable sides function perfectly.

High-resilience polyurethane foam remains firm, supportive, and highly comfortable.

Very good vintage condition with minor, age-appropriate wear. No stains, rips, or odors. This piece has an attribution mark,
