Pre order - Authentic Rudowski couch 2.8m long 1960s original green fabric
Designed by Jakob Rudowski in Melbourne Australia circa 1965, A beautiful very large 5 seater low sitting MCM couch in a lovely original green fabric. This couch sits low, has a lovely profileand easily sits up to 5 people. Made by Melbourne furniture artisan Jakob Rudowski. Rudowski, like Dario Zoureff and Rosando Furniture, is one of the mid-century modern makers of Melbourne as a "Tier 1" Australian maker his furniture rarely comes to market and is highly collectable. Many of his Melbourne clients were mid-century modernist architects and designers.
This has been lightly restored with the legs sanded and oil, the fabric professionally vacuum and steam cleaned and comes with new foam. It has a soft to firm original springs and foam. There is some usual wear on the seating areas, besides that the couch was hardly used from previous owner (left in the spare room) and is in very good to excellent condition.
Please note there is an option to reupholster to new fabric/colour of your choice however this will be an additional cost, but why would you natural green fabric and colour looks amazing. A fully restored includes new upholstery and restoration on foam and springs, however excludes fabric cost...refer to price and scope options
Overall Condition:
The previous owners were fastidious and kept this in excellent condition, obviously from 1960s there are signs of wear, however we have restored as best as possible:
Legs: 9/10 - sanded and wax oil lovely dark browns show throughout
Fabric: 8/10 - small wear marks on the seat. Has been vacuumed and steam cleaned so looks and feels amazing.
Very good - functionally no wobbles or warping in the wood. The spring coils have aged there are softer spots and more firmer spots on the ends. As an unrestored piece you can use it as is, however a full restoration would tighten and/or replace those coils.
