The Ari is one of Norell's most recognizable seating designs, pairing a sturdy chromed steel frame with a supple leather sling seat and a separate buckled headrest cushion — a composition that reads as both architectural and inviting. The thick, saddle-style leather softens and deepens with age, while the polished frame gives the piece its clean, floating profile. In good vintage condition with a beautiful patina throughout — the kind of warm, lived-in character in the leather that only develops over decades and is highly prized in Norell's work. A comfortable, sculptural statement chair equally at home in a reading corner, a study, or a design-forward living room.

Good vintage condition with a beautiful, age-appropriate patina throughout. Metal frame in good condition with some slight pitting/oxidation in areas. Overall presents well and is ready to place.
