Rosewood & Butterscotch Leather MP-163 “Earth” 3-Seater Sofa by Percival Lafer

This butterscotch cognac leather is really the quintessentially perfect color for the style and tone of the solid rosewood frame. As tasteful and inviting today as it was 4 decades ago, the diamond-sewn and pinch-tufted upholstery drips with texture and character. This parquet patchwork of square, interlocking panels covers the fronts, while the back has a smoother curve of stretched leather that nestles onto the frame. The leather has been thoroughly cleaned and conditioned. A few square panel sections appear to have been replaced. These replacement panels are not an exact color match.

Barely influenced by northern European design compared to most of his colleagues in his early days as a designer, Lafers’ work has always been traced back to his Brazilian roots. The diffuse use of local woods, the strength and hardness of his elegant designs and the warm colors of his fabrics and leathers, make him a fundamental figure in the evolution and affirmation of Brazilian design, both inside and outside the country’s borders.
