Knoll Womb Settee  

They look simple enough
to replicate

true
although I've never had anything recovered before and wasn't sure if they would be able to go off an image alone. I'm sure you're right.
One last question, does anyone know the dimensions ( depth ) of the cushions
Thanks

Depths
Depths
19.5" for the lower cushion
16.5 For the back cushion
Approximately 4" thick at the widest point
these are for the chair (3 years old) I'm guessing there the same for the settee,
Could you post some before and after pics if possible 🙂 always been curious about how these are upholstered

thank you..
So much for posting the measurements. That's a great help.
I will gladly post some before and after pics.
The before condition is sad to say the least, but I purchased the frame for $100 so I can't complain.

Excellent buy !
And I'm sure any good upholsterer can work from that picture
Look forward to yours!

Before
Sad shape. It sat in a barn for 20 years. The frame appears to in excellent condition though.
I can't wait to see this piece completely revived.
Again thank you guys for your help.

I hear the settee is a womb chair cut into two pieces with a board between...is this the case...this form is one of the most beautiful modern design of this period.great buy

Wow, Envy...
she's in poor condition, but any good mid century reupholsterer should be able to replicate the cushions.
Are you going to use the classic red Knoll fabric? It sure seems like the red color is iconic.
Where are you located? Is there an upolsterer in your city that specializes in mis-century modern design? You'll need an experienced guy to understand how to get it right.
I'm in Minneapolis, Minnesota and there's a guy in town that could certainly do it perfectly.

The red Knoll fabric seems...
The red Knoll fabric seems to be the most popular one at the moment, but if you look at older examples, they are often in other colors, such as orange, pale yellow, pale pink or even just a light grey... Much nicer in my opinion.

The exhibit KNOLL at the Louvre around 1972 started the (red thing) or put it on the map so to speak?of couse I cant find my catalogue:(

Looks good
no matter fabric you choose

.
Your right, it could be used in a fabric showroom to feature fabrics...

If it were me, I would...
If it were me, I would powder coat the frame black (they were available this way) and reupholster in a pale yellow ... I would stay away from red.
If you're really adventurous, you could recoat the base in brass and reupholster in a power blue or white leather!

Frame
Frame looks decent except for the feet.
I like the burnt orange fabric myself.
