Vintage 1970s Danish Tan Leather Box Two Seater Sofa
A superb vintage Danish two seater box sofa dating from the 1970s, upholstered in beautifully hand-dyed leather with a rich dark tan finish.
The leather has a wonderful depth of colour with subtle tonal variations throughout, creating a beautiful natural patina and giving the sofa plenty of warmth and character.
The sofa has great proportions, with a compact overall footprint while still offering a deep and exceptionally comfortable seating position. Its clean, structured box form gives it a timeless look typical of quality Danish design from the period.
A beautifully proportioned and versatile vintage sofa, ideal where space is at a premium without compromising on comfort or presence. Great quality throughout, with a solid construction designed to stand the test of time.
The sofa is in good vintage condition with age-related wear consistent with its age and use, adding to the character and beautiful patina of the piece.

the craft behind the patina
A slower way of making furniture — and the reason every piece feels different.
The Craft behind the patina
the craft behind the patina
Each sofa is dyed by hand using traditional pigments.
No two pieces finish the same — the patina develops naturally, just like fine leather luggage or vintage jackets.
The hand-dyeing process
Dyed by Hand, Not by Machine
Each hide is dyed by hand using layered techniques rather than sprayed or drum-coloured finishes.
The colour is built gradually, allowing depth, variation, and movement to develop across the surface.
No two hides take the dye in exactly the same way — and that’s entirely the point.
What you’re seeing isn’t a surface colour, it’s colour that lives within the leather!
The patina
A Patina Designed to Evolve
The patina is created through a multi-stage hand-dyeing and finishing process.
Over time, the leather continues to soften and deepen in tone through use, light, and touch, adding further character without losing integrity.
The result is a finish that feels established from day one and improves with age.
"Couldn’t recommend highly enough.
Absolutely love my sofa. And so does everyone else!"

"Brilliant pieces of furniture, great knowledge and you will not be disappointed. I bought an armchair after a visit to his warehouse. That in itself was a great experience. A hidden gem for now. Thank you!"

"They really are wonderful and we are delighted with our new chairs."
