This high-quality sofa is an early production of Cassina and designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa in circa 1964.
With old label 'Figli di amedeo Cassina'.
Model 920 is so pure in design. But it is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship with luxurious materials. The leather is of the softest and best kind, combined with a hardwood rosewood frame.
The sofa has beautifully supple patinated leather cushions that flow through to the side and backrests.
