Purchased new by the original owner in the late 1970s, these generously proportioned armchairs embody the relaxed sophistication and outstanding comfort of Italian furniture design of the period.

Their distinctive silhouettes feature deep, inviting seats, oversized padded armrests, and substantial back cushions. The remarkably durable buffalo hide leather displays a rich natural grain, beautiful tonal variations, and finely executed stitching, reflecting the quality of the original craftsmanship.

Nearly five decades of natural aging have given the leather remarkable depth and character, enhancing the authentic vintage appeal of these substantial yet understated pieces.

Exceptionally comfortable and practical, these Italian lounge chairs are equally suited to a contemporary living room, sophisticated library, or eclectic interior combining vintage and modern furnishings.

The pair are in very nice vintage condition with only minor surface wear consistent with age and use. The photos accurately depict the condition. See less
