Brühl Moule Medium Two-seater, Leather Brown

Brühl Moule Medium – two-seater with two swivel seats

Brühl has been making the Moule since 2003, to a design by Roland Meyer-Brühl. It is intended as a convertible sofa: in a few simple moves, the swivel seats become loungers or a lying surface. Swivel a seat by 90 degrees and the armrest moves to the front, where it lowers to serve as a footrest. You then adjust the backrest and headrest separately. According to Brühl, the distinctive bend in the backrest points to precisely this adjustability. Everything is operated by hand. Medium is the middle size, between Small and Large.

Moule Medium two-seater in brown leather – floor model

This two-seater is a Moule Medium with a leather cover in brown. It was on display and has never been used in a home. It seats two; the medium size fits into a living room just as well as into a study or reading room. Brown leather looks warm and combines well with wood, wool and linen. In rooms with a lot of wood, the sofa forms a calm, warm focal point.

Seating comfort and space

Sinuous springs do their work beneath the seat, topped by polyurethane foam with a soft fleece layer. On the Moule Medium, the seat depth is a good half metre; with a seat height of 42 cm, you sit in a standard, fairly upright position. The two-seater needs 1.8 m along the wall and 1.1 m in depth. According to Brühl, lowered backrests extend up to 44 cm to the rear. A walkway of 60 to 80 cm in front of the sofa is comfortable.

Elements and additions

Brühl complements the Moule with an armchair, footstool and longchair, as well as side table or shelf surfaces with a wooden surface or covered in fabric or leather. On the three-seater, a footstool in front of the middle seat creates a third place to lounge. The base is also available in a choice of metal or wooden runners. Orders are placed through Brühl retail partners, who can also obtain replacement covers.

Caring for the leather cover

Remove dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Dab stains with a slightly damp cloth, without rubbing. Once or twice a year, the leather needs a suitable care product to keep it supple. Do not place the sofa in direct sunlight or next to a radiator. The cover is removable, and Brühl makes replacement covers in leather or fabric to order.

Why a Brühl Moule Medium floor model?

Brühl was founded in Bad Steben in 1948 and still makes all its furniture in Germany today. As a floor model, this Moule Medium has only been on display; its padding and leather cover have never seen everyday use in a home. If the mechanism fittings stop moving smoothly later on, Brühl replaces them, and new covers are also possible. This piece has been inspected in eight stations.
