Classic & royal sofas

Classic grandeur, handmade in Malayer

Classic seating is for those who want a formal, impressive reception room. Carved wooden frames, turned arms and legs, gold or silver finishes and jacquard or velvet fabrics make these pieces the focus of any room. Malayer has long been known for its master wood carvers, and Mahd Mobl Iran applies that skill to designs with good proportions and comfortable seats.

Estil, classic and royal: what is the difference?

• Estil: the common Iranian term for sofas with exposed carved wood, from simple to very ornate.
• Classic: designs inspired by European furniture of past centuries, with balanced curves and gentler ornament.
• Royal: the most ornate style, with deep carving, tall crests, gilded finishes and richly patterned fabrics, for large, grand rooms.

Choosing classic seating

Wood and carving: carving on hardwood such as beech lasts and does not crack over time. Look at the fine detail of flowers and leaves.

Finish: a quality finish is even, without drips, and sealed to resist scratches.

Scale: royal designs are large; for smaller rooms choose classic designs with lighter ornament so the space does not feel crowded.

Coordination: classic sofas look their best with matching coffee and side tables, a traditional rug and heavier curtains. In this category you can choose a coordinated set.
