The daybed has trundle which allows the piece to turn into a double bed when the back bolster is inserted into the trundle space. Teak and painted wood frame; the back of the piece is grey. Professionally reupholstered in Kvadrat Hallingdal '0200' fabric in 2019; upholsterer reused original springs. The piece also comes with the original green cotton blanket that extended to cover the seat when used as a daybed.

The piece is in solid, functional shape with a few quirks. The back bolster and seat cushion are a tight fit when the daybed is fully extended. There is a 2" divot approx. 0.5" deep in the bottom base of the daybed and a 1/4" hole on the right side of the wooden frame. The left metal leg is crooked and one back leg is missing veneer. And while the daybed has been slipcovered since 2019, there are some irregularities and repaired snags in the fabric.

NOTE: piece is unmarked but Getama pieces weren't always signed before the 1970s.

78 1/2" wide x 26 1/4" high x 40 deep" x 54" deep when extended. Double and queen sheets fit. See less
