The Porcellino Sofa in Suede by Marzio Cecchi, Italy 1970s
The 'Porcellino' sofa translated 'Piglet' was designed by Florence Architect Marzio Cecchi for Studio Most in the 1970s. Known for his sculptural approach to furniture design, this model has the original buttery suede and easily transforms from a sofa to a daybed.
The Modern silhouette retains its original sand hued suede upholstery and features a slatted wood frame in a warm, cherry finish. The avant-garde design includes patinated metal latches, allowing the backrest to adjust and transform the piece into a daybed. This versatile feature showcases Cecchi's dedication to practical elegance, seamlessly blending comfort with adaptability. Sourced in Italy, 1970s.
