About the Item
An elegant and comfortable armchair in Mid-Century Modern style. Here, the traditional wingback model is revisited with a bold, minimalist aesthetic, typical of designers like Gio Ponti and Melchiorre Bega.
The structure is imposing and enveloping, with a high, straight backrest that extends upward, creating a sense of protection and intimacy. The wide, rounded side "wings" curve gently outward, forming a shield-shaped silhouette that conveys elegance and a touch of theatrical drama, without baroque excess. The seat is wide and low, with a welcoming depth that invites relaxation, while the armrests are wide and gently sloping, perfect for resting a book or a drink.
The upholstery is the true protagonist: a deep, warm red satin velvet that catches the light with a subtle, luxurious glow. This material, often used in the midcentury for its tactile warmth and chromatic versatility, seamlessly envelops the entire shape, emphasizing the soft curves and balanced proportions. At the feet, a matching decorative fringe adorns the lower edge of the seat and backrest, adding a playful, bohemian detail that recalls revisited Regency influences without weighing down the essential design.
