UK Sofa
The UK sofa was inspired in the famous Chesterfield sofa.

Bessa redesigned this icon of the world design and created a unique chesterfield. The Uk Sofa appears to be levitating. This refreshing look comes from the exquisite brass tube foot. The velvet adds a touch of excellence by accentuating the bright color with moving lights. The originality of the Uk sofa is in the innovative details while remaining familiar to the original design. This is another piece that brings back passionate memories!
