Designed by Guido Faleschini for i4 Mariani and produced in Italy for the Pace Collection, the Tucroma chair has become one of the most recognizable and well-regarded seating designs of the 1970s through current-day. This set of four armchairs features their original light grey leather upholstery paired with polished chrome tubular frames, showcasing the clean, architectural lines that define the Tucroma series. Signed underneath with original Mariani Italy labels.
Hand-crafted in Italy, these sculptural armchairs feature their original light grey leather upholstery, wonderfully supple and inviting, paired with polished chrome cantilevered tubular frames that give the chairs their unmistakable 1970s Italian modern allure.
The signature wide saddle-leather back straps, also in matching light grey, elegantly bridge the seat and back, secured with hand-tied detailing that highlights the artisanal construction for which i4 Mariani is celebrated. The plush tufted seats and backs, and sleek architectural forms make the Tucroma both visually striking and exceptionally comfortable.
About the Designer:
Guido Faleschini, the star designer of i4 Mariani, created some of the most recognizable designs of the era including the Tucroma line and a celebrated suite of bedroom furniture for Hermès. Pieces from i4 Mariani have become highly collectible, especially in excellent, original condition and in rare colorways.
Why This Set Is Special:
While Tucroma chairs are already difficult to source due to their extraordinary demand among interior designers and collectors, light grey leather is far more uncommon than the traditional black or brown configurations. This understated and luxurious tone makes the set incredibly adaptable, ideal for interiors seeking sophistication without heaviness.
This is a magazine-cover-worthy seating ensemble that pairs beautifully with marble or travertine dining tables by Angelo Mangiarotti, Roche Bobois, or Maitland-Smith, as well as lacquered goatskin and parchment tables by Karl Springer or Steve Chase. Also stunning with chrome, glass, burl wood, or high-gloss Postmodern pieces.
Styling & Placement Ideas:
These versatile armchairs can serve as: Dining chairs, armchairs, side chairs, or occasional chairs, a throne chair moment in a dressing room or spacious closet, stylish reading chairs or a perch to soak in a view, accent seating in an entryway, living room, den or game room, chic seating in boutique hotel lobbies, cocktail bars, members clubs, creative studios, corporate offices, or luxury retail environments. Perfect for interiors embracing Mid-Century Modern, Contemporary, Postmodern, Scandinavian Modern, Neoclassical, or Transitional styles.
For collectors or designers building an Italian Modern narrative, consider pairing these with works by Leon Rosen for Pace, Charles Hollis Jones, Vladimir Kagan, Pierre Paulin, Willy Rizzo, Maison Jansen, Aldo Tura, and more.
