Inspiration:The graceful curves of the swan’s rounded form were the result of experimentation with cold form polyurethane.

DC Collectors:One owner verified. 8 years old. Minimal use, both look as new. Purchase Invoice provided including Kvadrat fabric details.

Design Consigned Stylist:This pair of Swans, ‘dressed’ in their fashionable quince upholstery, would undoubtedly be the Design stars in any living space whilst providing a sophisticated colour accent.
