Mid-Century Smoked Sapphire Velvet Sculptural Supported Sofa by Vladimir Kagan

$24,975.00

This Mid-Century Modernist sofa, upholstered in luxurious smoked sapphire blue velvet and featuring sculptural supports, is a masterful example of the work of celebrated American designer Vladimir Kagan, created circa 1950. As one of the most influential figures of modern furniture design, Kagan is renowned for his innovative ability to merge organic, sculptural form with comfort and functionality, and this sofa exemplifies those hallmarks. The piece radiates an effortless sophistication, capturing the postwar era’s emphasis on clean lines, bold statement pieces, and a departure from traditional design conventions.

The Prussian blue velvet upholstery elevates the sofa with a rich, vibrant yet sophisticated hue, offering both visual and tactile allure. Velvet’s soft, plush texture enhances the seating experience while lending the piece a timeless elegance. What truly sets the sofa apart, however, is its sculptural supports, a striking embodiment of Kagan’s artistic sensibility. These supports add an unexpected architectural element, balancing the sofa’s fluid, organic shape with an inventive structural design that feels as much like an abstract sculpture as functional furniture.

As a documented example of Vladimir Kagan’s work, this sofa is not only an exceptional design object but also a piece of history, highlighting his commitment to pushing the boundaries of modernist furniture. Its combination of aesthetic innovation and practical comfort places it at the intersection of art and utility, making it a focal point for any interior space. Representing the pinnacle of mid-century American design, this sofa carries with it a sense of timeless chic that continues to captivate collectors and enthusiasts of Kagan’s visionary work. In Mint Restored Condition.
