Whoa! How awesome!! This tuxedo style five-piece sectional sofa is by one of the most currently sought-after designers, Milo Baughman, and was produced by high-end, high-quality maker Thayer Coggin. Its simple lines and style are extremely versatile as is its configuration possibilities. It is comprised of five pieces: one single armed three seat sofa; one single armed two seat sofa; two armless slipper style chairs; and a one seat corner section. It is covered in its original white linen-like fabric; however, you may want to recover. We have cleaned it professionally but…you know…white. This is the sofa you will never have to replace. It is classic and modern and comfortable and versatile and well built. When you want a change…just move it around! You must make it yours.
Here is a little bit of info for you about the phenomenal furniture making duo of Milo Baughman and Thayer Coggin. Milo Baughman, a 20th Century genius of design, was born in Western Kansas in 1923 but was moved a year later by his family to Long Beach, California. He created Milo Baughman Design Inc. in 1947 and began designing interiors and furniture. Thayer Coggin was born in 1922 in Denton, North Carolina. Twelve years later his family moved 25 miles north to High Point where he grew up surrounded by furniture manufacturing. Thayer’s first love was furniture and Milo’s was design. So, together in 1953, after the two met, history was made in American furniture making by one of the greatest collaborations in the industry. During his career and before his death in 2003, Milo did design for several other companies as well as his own, but it is his collaboration with Thayer Coggin that is most impressive and sought-after today. Thayer Coggin, Inc. is still in business today even after its namesake’s death and is still offering classic selections from the late Baughman’s designs.
If you want an iconic sofa to last you a lifetime…you need to make this one yours!
