United States, 1950s
Designed as part of Dunbar's Janus Collection in 1957, La Gondola, model 5719, is one of Edward Wormley's most coveted sofas. This is the longer version with six legs. The solid walnut frame, upholstered in Knoll's Diva textile (in Green Tea), features a floating back and curved arms expressive of the flat-bottomed Venetian boat from which it takes its name.
