The new production of new furniture results in high environmental impacts. The Norwegian EPD Foundation calculated in 2020 how much CO₂e is generated during the manufacture of various types of furniture. With the increased purchase of recycled or repaired furniture, less new is produced in the long run. By purchasing a B-stock or second-hand piece of furniture at COCOLI, you actively contribute to the circularity of the product and thus to reduced environmental impact. The CO₂e values we state are average values for various product types, calculated by the EPD and serve only as a reference.
What does CO₂e mean?
Several greenhouse gases contribute to climate change to varying degrees, for example, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and others. To summarize the climate impact of these greenhouse gases, they are converted to their "Global Warming Potential" (GWP), the unit of which is CO₂ equivalents (CO₂e). Depending on the activity, several different greenhouse gases can be emitted. Each greenhouse gas can be expressed as a CO₂ equivalent using the GWP.

Sandra Sofa Ottoman, designed by Annie Hiéronimus in the 1970s.
Material specifications:
Pull-up leather is a high-quality type of leather, where a characteristic change in color and structure is achieved by stretching or pulling the leather through special tanning and dyeing techniques. The result is a lively, vintage-like appearance. This leather has a moderate pull-up effect and becomes lighter in the stretched areas. It was manufactured in an Italian tannery.
Pull-up intensity: Low
Sheen: Low
Grain correction: No
Thickness: 0.9–1.1 mm
Our restorer has been carefully restoring authentic vintage Sandra models from all over Europe for many years. Depending on the condition, the original foam is supplemented or partially renewed to restore the characteristic, soft, enveloping seating feel. The sofa then receives a new cover according to the customer's wishes, e.g., from velvet, bouclé, corduroy, microfiber, or leather. The original interlining remains – if possible – is cleaned and reattached; the zipper also remains, provided its condition allows.
Typical for the Sandra is its all-foam construction, which does without a wooden or metal frame and consists of foam layers of different densities. This not only makes it appear sculptural and modern but also offers exceptionally high seating comfort. Whether as a standalone piece or combined with matching armchairs – the Sandra makes a stylish statement in any living space.
Good to know: If you are looking for a coffee table or side table for your Sandra sofa, please keep in mind the low seat height of 36 cm.
A fabric sample can be ordered via email at hello@cocoli.com. The shipping of textile or leather samples can sometimes take up to 2 weeks, even longer for special fabrics, as they first have to be requested from the upholstery workshop. Thank you for your understanding.
Important note: The vintage sofas offered here are individually refurbished by the dealer's upholstery workshop after the ordering process is completed; the degree of restoration depends on the condition of the available vintage sofa. Since new fabrics and materials are used for the refurbishment, the original label cannot be reattached.
This is a vintage product refurbished with new fabrics. No specific flaws are known, but as with any vintage product, there may be signs of wear and tear from the passage of time. The original brand labels will not be re-sewn after refurbishment. All Sandra Sofas come with a printed certificate of authenticity from the upholsterer.
