Model close to that designed for the Fede Cheti decoration house in Milan. Gio Ponti was one of the first to design curved sofa models from the 1930s to the end of the 1950s. The quality of the design and manufacturing, as well as the characteristic profile of the legs, allows an attribution to Gio Ponti.
