Know before you buy
The 1001 AX Sofa is upholstered in premium fluted leather, which is chosen for its durability and ability to develop a beautiful patina over time.
With a seat height of 15.35 inches, this sofa sits slightly lower than many contemporary standard sofas, staying true to its mid-century Scandinavian design roots.
The frame is constructed from solid walnut, ensuring a high level of structural integrity and a rich, natural aesthetic that complements the leather upholstery.
The 1001 AX Sofa is a stationary, standard design that typically arrives fully assembled or with minimal leg attachment required, depending on your specific delivery service.
To maintain the leather, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth and using a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
Yes, the combination of a solid walnut frame and high-quality leather makes this a durable piece suitable for daily use, though it is best kept out of direct sunlight to preserve the leather's color.
