The iconic De Sede DS-600 modular sofa, also known as 'Snake', 'Caterpillar' or 'Non-Stop'.
This piece is a collectible early model consisting of fourteen modules in total (twelve middle modules and two corner modules), in a very rare finish which has acquired a unique patina throughout the years.
De Sede began in Klingnau, Switzerland as a tanner’s workshop and has long been known as a maker of fine leather furniture that is versatile and comfortable. The DS-600 is the most well known of the company’s furniture designs. Interestingly, while the DS-600 has come to be known as the Non Stop sofa, this title seems to have not been used by De Sede. The company notes on its website that the sofa was actually named after a mythical creature in Alpine lore, the Tatzelwurm, which is said to be a long and slender lizard or worm-like creature that has the face of a cat.
The modules are made from an L-shaped hard foam core covered with a leather-covered cushion. The elements are connected with a plug-in hinge and a construction made of hide and zipper.
The DS-600's serpentine form and ability to create a continuous seating arrangement make it a distinctive piece in any room. This sofa offers a versatile seating solution and represents a key part of 1970s furniture design.
The sofa is in very good condition with expected signs of age and unique patina - as depicted in the photos. There are no tears or significant damage on the leather nor the brown fabric. The sofa has been very well maintained – the leather was regularly maintained, the fabric was cleaned, even the zippers were regularly lubricated.
The sofa is structurally excellent and fully usable, but the two corner modules are noticeably sagging/sinking in their upper part (last photo) – this is also the most noticeable imperfection on the sofa, and a common flaw seen in the early models.
We try our best to accurately depict any imperfections on our photos. Please feel free to contact us for any additional photos.
Please note this is an early model from the mid or late 1970s.
