The Poet Sofa was originally designed by Finn Juhl for his own home, later exhibited at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition. This small, two-seater sofa draws inspiration from surrealist art, reflecting Juhl’s commitment to combining art with functionality.

The Poet Sofa is recognized for its and its slim, tight padding and sculptural form, where the backrest curves frontward creating a false enclosure. The sofa’s compact size and organic form facilitate intimate seating while making it ideal for modern living spaces, demonstrating Juhl’s ambition to create functional furniture for smaller homes.

Shown in Dove Faux Shearling on Main and Seat, with Matching Primary Buttons, on Oiled Walnut Legs.

The Archetype Forms Poet Sofa: Two-Seater Loveseat is a faithful reproduction of the original Finn Juhl Poet Sofa, FJ 4100.
