"Scheletro" Bench by Kari Asikainen, P. O. Korhonen Oy, Finland, 1980s

Designed in 1987 by renowned Finnish designer Kari Asikainen, the "Scheletro" two-seater sofa is a striking embodiment of postmodern design. Its anthropomorphic, skeletal shape makes it unmistakably unique, both playful and ergonomic. Crafted by the Finnish manufacturer P. O. Korhonen, known for its wood-pressing expertise, the sofa reflects the forward-thinking craftsmanship and design sensibility that defined Finnish furniture of the late 20th century. With its futuristic appearance, exposed bolts, and sculptural wooden form, the Scheletro is a collector's item rarely seen on the market today.

This model comes from the exclusive Scheletro collection developed by Kari Asikainen for P. O. Korhonen Oy, a factory co-owned by Martela and Artek, both pillars of Finnish modernism. The company specialized in bentwood furniture and the use of innovative press-formed components, which give the sofa its sculptural quality. Despite its complex design, the sofa can be flat-packed, offering reduced shipping costs and easier transportation. Shipping quotes are available upon request.
