Sculptural and daring, their ergonomically curved silhouettes capture attention with sweeping lines and an enveloping form that blends visual drama with comfort. Upholstered in their original burnt-orange velvet, the chairs feature generously ribbed backrests and plush armrests, offering both striking aesthetics and superior comfort. The structured black lacquered wood frames provide a sleek, architectural contrast to the softness of the fabric, enhancing the futuristic allure. Mounted on discreet integrated casters, the chairs are easy to reposition while maintaining a grounded, low-profile stance. These pieces are a tribute to the postwar Italian design movement—an era driven by experimentation, optimism, and the influence of space-age culture. Their iconic form evokes the playful, avant-garde spirit of the time, making them ideal statement pieces in a curated interior, whether mid-century modern, eclectic, or contemporary. The chairs are in good vintage condition, showing visible traces of age and use consistent with their era. While the structure remains solid, we recommend reupholstery prior to regular use, both for comfort and longevity. This presents an excellent opportunity to customize the chairs to suit your interior, while retaining their distinctive design and collectible value. Dimensions (per chair): Height: 86 cm Width: 62 cm Depth: 90 cm Seat Height: 36 cm A rare find for collectors and design enthusiasts, these Salotti Martini lounge chairs offer timeless sculptural form and a bold expression of 1960s Italian creativity.
