About the Item

Experience timeless elegance and innovative design with the Gilda reclining armchair, an iconic creation by Carlo Mollino from 1954, masterfully reproduced by Zanotta in the 1990s. Crafted with precision, the chair features a solid natural oak frame with a wax varnish, showcasing the beauty and warmth of shaped solid wood. A single, distinctive element joins the legs and the cozy armrests, designed with a unique leaf-like shape. This thoughtful detail not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also offers practicality—large enough to hold a book and a pair of glasses, it brings convenience and style together effortlessly. The armchair’s black-nickel satin-finished brass components add a modern, refined touch, while its adjustable backrest offers four positions for personalized comfort. The luxurious brown removable leather, crafted from the highest Extra category, adds richness and durability, making this chair as functional as it is beautiful. The Gilda armchair reflects Carlo Mollino’s eclectic style and constant pursuit of ergonomics. Mollino, a visionary Italian architect, designer, and photographer, was celebrated for his unconventional approach and ability to blend art with functionality. Known for his limited-edition furniture pieces and groundbreaking designs, Mollino was fascinated by aviation and the human form—both influences that are subtly embedded in Gilda’s elegant, ergonomic lines. This masterpiece is produced by Zanotta, one of the most respected names in Italian design. Founded in 1954, Zanotta is known for its innovative techniques and collaborations with iconic designers. The company played a pivotal role in bringing Mollino’s vision to life, ensuring every detail of the Gilda armchair embodies his artistic spirit and commitment to quality. Whether placed in a living room, study, or library, the Gilda armchair is more than a piece of furniture—it’s a symbol of timeless craftsmanship, design ingenuity, and artistic excellence. Own this legendary masterpiece and bring a piece of design history into your home.
