the double-stitched armchairs are made of bright red calfskin, with two-tone python-print calfskin inserts and brass brackets. A formitalia brass plate with the typical gucci logo is located on the side of the seat, and a fabric label is positioned near the python insert. These imposing armchairs are extremely comfortable, elegant, and enveloping. Despite being rocking chairs, they are highly stable and can be rocked whenever desired. The unique curved bars underneath (sleds), which support the armchairs and allow them to rock, are specifically designed to give you the freedom to choose whether to sit on a stable chair or enjoy the rocking motion.
note: it's not immediately obvious, but the python print features the stirrup design, typical of the logo.

armchair dimensions: w 90 cm x h 85 cm x d 100 cm.

the condition of the armchairs in this set is excellent, like new.

fun fact: after this production, elisabetta gucci was sued by the maison for using the gucci logo without authorization. The lawsuit ended without the maison seeking financial compensation, but with the recall of the items. This made these items virtually impossible to find, and today they are undoubtedly rare.
