Amazing 1980s Postmodern Chrome Frame Sofa by Bernhardt, Flair Line Milo Baughman Style
A striking postmodern sofa from the coveted Flair Line collection by Bernhardt Furniture, circa 1980s. This piece exemplifies the era’s bold reinterpretation of mid-century modern design, combining clean architectural lines with glamorous chrome accents.
The sofa’s frame is defined by sweeping chrome bands and angular side supports, giving it a sculptural quality from every angle. Upholstered in the original red fabric with a subtle grid pattern, the design offers both comfort and a vibrant visual statement.
