Its soft, rounded shapes challenge the rigid geometries of earlier modernism, embracing a more sensual and human-centered aesthetic that defined the Italian Space Age movement.

This example has been fully restored and reupholstered in a rich brown alpaca velvet, a fabric that enhances the depth and luxurious tactility of its sculptural form. The comfort and structure have been refined through partial replacement of the internal foam and Dacron fillers, while the polished chrome-plated steel frame elegantly contains and highlights the generous volumes of the seat.

A statement of sophisticated Italian craftsmanship and expressive mid-20th-century design, the Sesann armchair brings warmth, character, and timeless style to contemporary interiors, remaining highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts. This piece has an attribution mark,
