Tobia & Afra Scarpa Bastiano 3-Seater Sofa
Designed by Tobia Scarpa in 1962, the Bastiano Sofa was conceived with the aim of combining sophistication and elegance with a relaxed, casual feel. Scarpa's vision resulted in a sofa that was not only visually appealing but also versatile, fitting seamlessly into both modern and traditional interiors. Its timeless design made it one of the most iconic and successful pieces of its era, praised for its simplicity, comfort, and understated charm.
We believe this sofa to be a rare early edition (this is not verified, no makers label is evident however as far as we are aware no replicas have ever been produced) as it features slightly different leatherwork detail to that usually seen, including piping to the arms and pleated folds to the back seat cushions.
Unlike many other versions, this sofa showcases unique leatherwork details, including piping on the arms and pleated folds on the back seat cushions—variations that are seldom seen in later iterations. To preserve the authenticity of the design while enhancing its luxury, the sofa has been reupholstered by expert leatherworkers using the finest quality soft grain black leather. The solid wood frame has also been fully restored, ensuring the overall structure remains faithful to Scarpa's original design.
Dimensions:
Frame: W 212.5cm x D 78.5cm x H 57.5cm
This piece is in restored vintage condition, with both the frame and leatherwork having undergone careful restoration. However, it should be noted that the frame does bear some signs of wear from its previous use, adding to its character and history. Additionally, one of the small screw covers on a leg is missing, a minor detail that does not detract from the sofa's overall appeal.
