A beautiful matching custom designed five-piece seating suite by Metro, the brand of Metropolitan Furniture Corporation of South San Francisco, California. The set includes a two-seat loveseat, two lounge chairs, and two ottomans, all upholstered in a silky, textured ivory fabric with alternating smooth bands and finely gathered stripes.
The standout detail is the ivory leather piping. At each corner of all five pieces, it opens into a flared leather panel at the skirt, with a fixed decorative zipper tucked between the edges. The construction gives the suite the look of a tailored zippered slipcover. The zipper is decorative, and the ivory fabric is sewn in place as the fixed upholstery.
**Note the color difference appearing in the photos is due to different lighting conditions. All 5 pieces of furniture match perfectly and beautifully. The ivory fabric most closely resembles the ivory shown in image 4 of the chairs**
Maker and provenance
The original Metro factory tags are dated March 17, 1988, and share base order number 34040 00. The photographed tags show style codes 720-2 and 720-OTTO and specify COM, or Customer’s Own Material, for the upholstery order. According to the original owner, the suite was custom ordered through interior designer, Helen S. Scheffler, in New York City.
Condition
Remarkable, gorgeous condition for age of furniture. The only noticed flaws are three small, separate areas of very faint water marking.
