Eden
Eden is an elegant sofa bed available in single,
queen and two single-bed versions. It features clean lines and masterful
craftsmanship, enhanced by the use of a handsomely luxurious material like
cowhide, singularly able to imbue any object with tangible added value,
impervious to the effects of time and fleeting fashions. The seat back and
armrests are made of wood clad entirely in cowhide and substantial bolsters padded
with polyurethane and Dacron and soft goose-down-filled cushions. The base
is upholstered with a tasteful slipcover in an easy-to-remove soft lightweight
fabric. Kick pleats at the corners lend an added layer of sophistication.
