Created in the 1960s, each chair is a sculptural celebration of comfort and craftsmanship, featuring generous proportions, softly contoured lines, and rich material contrasts. Upholstered in beautifully patinated cognac leather, the chairs exude warmth and character, enhanced by a textured natural canvas base that provides subtle visual tension and tactile depth. The organic, low-slung silhouette is both inviting and visually impactful, making these chairs ideal statement pieces for sophisticated interiors. The thick, down-filled cushions are wrapped in supple leather that has aged gracefully, showcasing desirable creases and tonal variations that speak to decades of use and care. Complementing the leather is a woven fabric base, punctuated by leather corner patches that provide structural integrity and stylistic continuity.

These chairs reflect that legacy, blending sculptural design with everyday functionality. Their relaxed form encourages lounging, while their artisanal quality and rare materials elevate them far beyond casual seating. Each chair measures 85 cm in depth, 80 cm in width, and 64 cm in height, with a seat height of 38 cm. Four chairs are available; price is per piece. Perfect for collectors and design enthusiasts, these lounge chairs work equally well in residential or hospitality settings. Whether placed individually or as a set, they bring a sense of Italian sophistication, history, and comfort into any space. Note: Light wear consistent with age and use.
