Pair of 1962 Italian Mid-Century Modern Lounge Chairs by Marco Zanuso for Arflex A stunning pair of lounge chairs designed by Marco Zanuso and produced by Arflex in Italy, 1962—a benchmark of mid-century Italian design and a celebration of modernist form, function, and materiality. These chairs exemplify Zanuso’s visionary approach, where sculptural lines meet everyday comfort. The curvaceous bentwood frames are a standout feature, with sweeping arms and legs that flow in a single, unified gesture. Crafted in richly toned wood, the frames exhibit an extraordinary patina, enhanced by decades of gentle use. The warmth and depth of the wood's surface make each chair uniquely characterful—no two areas are alike. Equally compelling are the original black leather cushions, which show a beautifully aged, soft sheen and supple texture. The leather has developed a deep, natural patina, offering a tactile richness that only time can produce. Comfortably plush and visually refined, the seats cradle the body while maintaining a timeless modern profile. Zanuso, a pioneer of industrial design, brought innovation and elegance together like few others. These chairs—produced by Arflex, Italy’s cutting-edge furniture house—reflect his commitment to comfort-driven design paired with high craftsmanship. Perfect as accent chairs in a living space or statement pieces in a refined lounge, they exude quiet confidence and enduring Italian style. Dimensions (each): Height: 79 cm / 31.1 in Seat Height: 34 cm / 13.4 in Width: 45 cm / 17.7 in Depth: 88 cm / 34.6 in Very good vintage condition with exceptional patina to both wood and leather. A rare collector’s set that merges form, material, and heritage in perfect harmony. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
