Kroehler Sectional Seating Group

1977.  Studio 54 opens its doors.  Abba's "Dancing Queen" is topping the charts.  Disco dancing bottoms are adorned with Jordache's horses and Gloria's swans.  In fashion as well as interior design, bold is best and orange is king.  It is 1977 and this sectional seating group is purchased for a new Great Lakes lake house.  It was made by Kroehler Furniture as part of their 'Citation' collection.  It was pretty luxe at the time.  The construction is top notch and the set has stood the test of time nicely both from a quality as well as a design perspective.  The orange velvet upholstery is original and in great vintage condition.  The foam in the cushions and the metal springs in the frames are also in great shape.  While the upholstery has a lot of life left in it, the quality of the set makes it a worthy candidate for reupholstering down the road, and another 4 decades of life.  The sections can be arranged as shown, as a three seater sofa, or as three individual chairs. 33" w., 33" d., 18" h. seat, 33" h. sides.  American, c. 1977  SOLD      
Condition:  Good vintage condition with age appropriate wear.
