Oriolo Sofa – Claudio Salocchi for Sormani
An exceptional Oriolo sofa by Claudio Salocchi for Sormani, professionally restored in exceptionally supple black leather while retaining its original sculptural rosewood frame.
Designed by Claudio Salocchi for Sormani in the 1960s, the Oriolo sofa is a striking example of Italian modernist design, combining architectural clarity with generous, inviting comfort. Its distinctive construction contrasts a rigid geometric outer frame with deeply cushioned upholstery, resulting in a design that feels simultaneously structured and remarkably relaxed.

- The sofa is presented in excellent restored vintage condition. It has been professionally reupholstered in thick, exceptionally supple high-quality black leather, with completely renewed supporting straps and underlining. The original rosewood veneer frame has been preserved and shows scratches and signs of use consistent with its age. Thanks to the rich, highly figured grain and expressive character of the rosewood, these traces blend naturally into the surface and are not visually distracting. Structurally sound, exceptionally comfortable and ready for everyday use.
Upholstery: Professionally renewed in thick, supple black leather
Restoration: New leather upholstery, supporting straps and underlining
