Howard Keith Diplomat Sofa c1970

This Howard Keith Diplomat sofa is what you would call a real voluptuous statement sofa with it’s bold Sereno stripped fabric

Designed by John Home in 1970 for Howard Keith, the Diplomat sofa was quickly considered a classic sofa design and was sold by retailers such as Harrods and Heals.  The low, modernist sleek lines and deep-set seating make them a well sought after piece. These sofas were owned by both royalty, pop starts and celebrities of the day and one was recently featured in Elton John’s private jet in Rocketman.

Each sofa has retained it’s original fabric to which shows very minimal wear. As an added bonus as they are often missing, each so also comes with 5 original small scatter cushions
