This sofa makes me wish I had a warm fire crackling in the fireplace, a cozy blanket, a classic Humphrey Bogart movie on the television, and a bag full of Andes mints!! We absolutely LOVE this mint green velvet sofa by Henredon!! And this beauty was made for renowned businessman Edward Keith of Kansas City, Missouri! He was in business as Edward Keith Inc. from 1971 through July 1988, and obviously had fabulous taste in seating!! This modified tuxedo style sofa wears its original mint green velvet fabric, which is wonderfully worn and distressed, or perfectly imperfect as we like to say. It has three loose seat cushions, 3 loose back pillows, slightly curved arms (hence the “modified” tuxedo style,) and a lovely skirt around the sofa base. Though it is modern Art Deco and Hollywood Regency in style, this gorgeous sofa will blend in beautifully with just about any decor style whether it be mid-century modern, contemporary, boho chic, or even traditional! Versatility, superb comfort, and impeccable good looks! What more could you ask for??
Henredon was founded in 1945 by four Drexel Heritage executives; T. Henry Wilson, Ralph Edwards, Donnell VanOpppen, and Sterling Collet. The name Henredon is a combination of their names. These four men were determined to build furniture of custom quality and their original offering was only three chests. It has since blossomed into hundreds of designs still in keeping with their goal. Through the years they have engaged well known designers to create their unique and fine furniture. They currently are part of the company Furniture Brands, Inc. but still embracing their long-standing tradition of fine furniture craftsmanship and reputation for timeless elegance.
Don’t let this GORGEOUS mint green velvet sofa by Henredon pass you by! Make it yours!!
