The renaissance of the DS-55, a project birthed from pure passion, is a glorious tribute to de Sede's 55-year journey of crafting exquisite leather sculptures. This lounge-inspired design eloquently embodies timeless aesthetics, supreme leather quality, and unparalleled craftsmanship in a refreshed edition.
Its seat shell offers a warm embrace and perfect stability, while the soft armrests coax one into a relaxed state, offering an introspective journey between the past and the future.

Our online sales department will contact you prior to delivery to discuss your requirements, including access checks and placement. If your order cannot be delivered due to restricted access, you may request delivery to an alternative address within 2 months - please note that this will incur costs for storage and redelivery.
For items that cannot fit into the room of choice through conventional delivery means, we can deliver via platform hoist, ropes or crane with a surcharge. Our third-party fitters are trained to remove wooden and UPVC sash windows.
