This striking vintage sofa is an authentic design by Mel Smilow, one of the pioneers of American modern furniture. With its clean architectural lines, solid wood case, and sculptural tapered legs, it embodies the warm minimalism that made Smilow’s work a favorite of mid-century interiors.
The sofa retains its original vibrant blue upholstery, offering a bold pop of color that feels both period-correct and surprisingly contemporary. The tailored seat and back cushions provide generous comfort while maintaining the refined profile Smilow is known for. The wood frame shows only light, honest wear consistent with age, and remains structurally sound—an excellent example of quality mid-century craftsmanship.
