Description
Originally made for use in dormitory rooms, this vintage GE-259 Sofa Bed was designed by Hans Wegner and manufactured by GETAMA , circa 1950s. A great example of mid-century modern functionality, this sofa features a sensibly wide frame made of beautifully aged oak that can be easily configured to a daybed. The backrest can be folded up and hides a compartment intended for storing bed linen and when this piece functions as a sofa, you have a shelf behind the backrest.
