Khartoum Sofa, Small

Rounded arms, broad seat, and the color of very strong coffee.

This Khartoum sofa, small, is a contemporary piece in dark brown leather from the Primitive Collection. Sofas of this kind take their cue from early 20th century club furniture, made for members to read and talk in comfort, and now serve studies and living rooms. The arms curve over in a thick, smooth roll, stitched along the edges. Two wide cushions sit on a deep base, and a pale seam marks the center of the back. A slim wooden plinth runs underneath. Seventy-four inches long, thirty-five and a half deep and thirty-three high.

Sitting down is a commitment. Getting up is optional.
