Description
The iconic Abalon Sofa, named after the shell of a sea snail, has an organically curved shape that evokes a circle to which people feel drawn. The comfortably padded seat shell offers a place for quiet seclusion and generously accommodates up to three people.
Abalon features different knitted fabric covers on the front and back. These are available in a diverse selection of hues and, together with the choice of two colours for the base frame, result in a wide range of configuration options. The fabric covers can be fully removed for cleaning or replacement.
