The armchairs feature low, sculptural armrests and an enveloping, elegant silhouette, reflecting the refined evolution of Italian Art Deco in the early 1950s, where decorative richness meets modern softness and balance.

Made in Italy in the early 1950s, the armchairs rest on slender, tapered brass legs, lending a visual lightness and a refined textural contrast with the upholstery.

The pair has been fully restored and reupholstered in cream-colored bouclé-effect fabric, carefully selected to enhance the generous curves and sculptural presence of the design.

An exceptional pair, perfect as a statement piece in a sophisticated living room, a luxurious setting, a study, or any refined interior, they fit perfectly into midcentury, Art Deco, and luxurious contemporary settings. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no

however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
