Know before you buy
The Swan Sofa is designed as a compact two-seater, making it ideal for smaller living areas, home offices, or as an accent piece in a larger lounge.
No, the Swan Sofa is defined by its organic, curved silhouette. Arne Jacobsen intentionally designed the piece without any straight lines to create a soft, sculptural aesthetic.
You can choose between premium wool blends, such as Hallingdal or Sunniva, which offer texture and durability, or a vegetable-tanned, chrome-free leather that will develop a unique patina over time.
The seat height is 15.8 inches, which is slightly lower than a standard sofa. This provides a relaxed, lounge-style seating position consistent with mid-century modern design.
The Swan Sofa is a stationary piece. It is supported by a fixed, matte brushed aluminum base that provides a stable and sleek foundation for the organic frame.
Because this leather is chrome-free and natural, it is sensitive to direct sunlight and heat sources. We recommend keeping it away from windows and using a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting to maintain its finish.
