Two-seat sofa from the Hombre series, designed by Burkhard Vogtherr for Rosenthal, produced as part of the Rosenthal Furniture program.
In 1972, Rosenthal expanded its activities beyond porcelain and introduced a dedicated furniture collection, manufactured in its own factory in Espelkamp, Germany. Under the Rosenthal Furniture label, the company collaborated with leading designers including Burkhard Vogtherr and Günter Ferdinand Ris. This program resulted in distinctive designs such as Vogtherr’s Hombre seating series and Ris’ Sunball globe chair, positioning Rosenthal as a design-driven furniture manufacturer during the 1970s.
The Hombre sofa is characterized by a solid wood frame with continuous sled-style legs and softly rounded armrests. Loose leather seat and back cushions are placed within the frame, clearly expressing the construction while offering a comfortable and relaxed seating experience. The proportions are balanced and deliberate, typical of Vogtherr’s approach to late 20th-century furniture design.
A well-preserved example of German designer furniture from the 1970s, representative of Rosenthal’s short but significant furniture production and of Vogtherr’s restrained, functional design ethos.
