Hot red couches

http://thehouseoflisa.blogspot.com/ Lisa found this beautiful vintage leather couch at a flea market in Sweden.
She thinks it might be Lundby from around 1965. Any ideas? Thanks Lisa it is iconic.

  1. I'm quite sure it's by Lundby. I have collected the leather sofas and chairs since I absolutely love them, and until recently they were the only modern looking sofas to find in my scale. I have the sofas and chairs in both black and red.

  3. I'm sorry I can't contibute anything at all regarding the couch but I can't resist commening on it's setting. I just love the 'distressed' decor of that room. I guess it's by a result of true aging but I'd be very happy if I could reproduce it so it's now going in my 'inspiration' file. Not sure why I've suddenly become obsessed by 'decay' in styling - something to do with one's own advancing years perhaps ??? ;)

    (I see that I must post a new photo of his living room soon so I have one without the Christmas tree too, but this spring has been stuffed with family occasions, so it has been very little time for minis)

  5. Thanks Pubdoll, you're a babe!

    Norma I also love the charm of the aged dollhouse. It reminds me of the work of Paul Keleher where he documments antique dollhouses.
