Cassina "276 Aspen" Sofa Chaise in Aubergine Purple Fabric

Cassina "276 Aspen" Sofa Chaise in Aubergine Purple Fabric

Sculptural form. Italian precision. Statement design.

The Jean Marie Massaud designed "276 Aspen" sofa chaise from Cassina is a striking example of contemporary Italian design — defined by its dramatic, sweeping profile and beautifully engineered structure. More than just seating, this piece reads as a functional sculpture within a room.

Its distinctive asymmetrical backrest rises in a smooth, architectural curve, creating movement and visual interest from every angle. The chaise format offers generous lounging comfort while maintaining a refined, minimalist presence.

Upholstered in deep aubergine fabric, the colour adds richness and depth, enhancing the bold form without overwhelming a space. The tone works beautifully in moody, modern interiors or layered into warmer, textural schemes for contrast and sophistication.

Raised on slim, discreet chromed-metal legs, the design appears light despite its substantial scale — a hallmark of Cassina’s thoughtful engineering and design-led approach.

Produced by Cassina, one of Italy’s most respected furniture houses, the Aspen sofa chaise combines innovation, craftsmanship, and enduring design quality.

A true conversation piece with presence.

This piece is in superb, fastidiously-maintained condition, having seen light, irregular use in its previous home, and is entirely free from fault, flaw or damage.

Its hugely handsome order reflects the TLC and considerate use afforded it in the past and, aside from one-or-two light (and i mean light!) marks to the fabric, is as impeccable as is possible to imagine.

For the avoidance of doubt, please view the numerous images provided to confirm the sublime condition and appearance of this piece. A true classic of modern furniture design, and a piece of huge impact and presence.

It is certain to meet the requirements of all but the true-perfectionist and, for someone looking for a piece of seating of peerless design and execution to position at the heart of their home, it is truly heaven sent! Without question, this superb sofa possesses all the beauty and majesty you would expect from one of the most handsome contemporary seating designs ever made.

Dimensions-wise, the measurements of this piece are H-72cm, W-179cm and D-90cm, and the breathtaking seating position this iconic modern-design creates is enhanced by the use of sumptuously comfortable, generously upholstered back and seat cushioning, which leaves you powerless to resist its charms. Not only does it possess an aesthetic to die for, but it is so comfortable too!

Costing in excess of £7000 when new, it represents spectacular value for money, and we have no doubt it will serve and delight its new owner for many years to come.
