Description
Description:
This is an exceptional queen-sized sleeper sofa from Avery Boardman, the undisputed gold standard in custom-engineered upholstery. Known as a trade-only manufacturer catering to the world's top interior designers, Avery Boardman pieces are bench-made in New York with a level of craftsmanship that far exceeds mass-market luxury brands.
The hallmark of this piece is the legendary Avery Boardman Steel Weave bed mechanism. Unlike standard pull-out sofas that use flimsy sagging wires, the Steel Weave support system provides a flat, firm, and remarkably stable foundation. This engineering ensures a sleep experience that rivals a traditional permanent bed, preventing the "middle-dip" common in lesser sleeper sofas.
The sofa is dressed in a high-quality, heavy-weight tapestry featuring a sophisticated palette of yellow, red, and brown. The textile is durable and rich in texture, showcasing the intricate weaving expected from a custom commission. Whether you choose to keep the vintage maximalist aesthetic or use this elite-quality frame as a candidate for reupholstery, the structural integrity of the kiln-dried hardwood frame and the heavy-duty mechanism remain in excellent condition.
Condition:
Good vintage condition. The frame is rock-solid and the Steel Weave mechanism operates smoothly. The tapestry upholstery shows well with minor signs of gentle use consistent with age.
