An original Italian Gufram Studio 65 bocca sofa in the form of lips: 'A tribute to Salvador Dali' and designed in 1971, this sofa dates to around 1980 and was taken from a boutique in Rome. In exceptional condition.
The Studio 65 Gufram Marilyn Bocca Lip Sofa is made with cold expanded polyurethane which is extremely comfortable. It is upholstered with a vibrant lipstick-red textured elasticated fabric.
This lip-shaped sofa is an icon of modern furniture design. Studio 65's Marilyn Bocca Lip Sofa was produced in homage to the Surrealist painter Salvador Dali. Salvador Dali designed a quite similar piece in the 1930s that was meant to resemble Mae West's lips. Studio 65 updated Salvador Dali's design in 1972 and called it the Marilyn Bocca Sofa in honor of Marilyn Monroe. This sofa provides a natural and inviting place to rest with its graceful and comforting shape. This sensual icon of modern design is destined to be a conversation piece for many years to come.
