Antonio Citterio Eros Sofa for Flexform in Black Velvet

n elegant Eros sofa, designed by Antonio Citterio for Flexform in Italy and introduced in 1997. The Eros collection is a perfect example of Citterio's restrained design philosophy, combining refined proportions, exceptional comfort, and meticulous Italian craftsmanship to create a sofa that remains timeless decades after its introduction.

Upholstered in rich black velvet, the sofa features generous seat and back cushions that create a relaxed yet tailored appearance. The solid wood frame is padded with high-density polyurethane foam, while the seat cushions combine goose down with resilient inner cores to provide lasting support and comfort. Down-filled back cushions complete the design, offering a luxurious seating experience that has become synonymous with Flexform's approach to contemporary living.

The sofa measures approximately 80.7 inches wide, 39.4 inches deep, with a seat height of approximately 13.8 inches.

The sofa is in good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age and normal use. The velvet upholstery presents well overall with minor signs of use, while the cushions remain supportive and comfortable. Structurally, the sofa is solid and ready for everyday use.

What we like most about the Eros is its understated elegance. Rather than relying on bold shapes or decorative details, it achieves its presence through beautifully balanced proportions, luxurious materials, and exceptional comfort, making it equally at home in contemporary and classic interiors.

As with all vintage pieces, signs of use are part of the story. Colors can look slightly different depending on the light. If you'd like more photos or details, just let me know.
