About the Item
We kindly invite you to read the full description, as we strive to provide accurate technical and historical details to ensure the authenticity of our items.
Inspired by the iconic LC2 model designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand in 1928 and later produced by Cassina under exclusive license starting in 1965, this armchair is a refined Italian reinterpretation dating back to the 1970s. (1970-1975). Crafted by a specialized workshop in Northern Italy, it stands out for its high-quality materials and meticulous craftsmanship, clear indicators of its artisanal origin. The polished stainless steel frame, with its clean yet elegant lines, faithfully echoes the design of the renowned “fauteuil grand confort.” The upholstery has been recently restored and re-covered in durable black velvet, giving the chair a sober, sophisticated appearance—ideal for both classic interiors and more modern or industrial spaces. Though not an original Cassina piece, this armchair remains a genuine testament to the postwar Italian embrace of modernist design and offers an excellent alternative for those seeking the timeless style of the LC2 combined with the craftsmanship of a vintage, artisan-made item. Thanks to its sculptural, compact form, this piece lends itself to a variety of settings: perfect beside a modern fireplace, in a refined study, or as a focal point in a minimalist living room. It pairs beautifully with concrete floors, light wood parquet, or geometric rugs, and works well next to a glass or metal side table to enhance its architectural character. Also striking as a contrasting element in more classic interiors, where it adds a timeless touch of design. The armchair has been fully restored and is in excellent condition.

Zanuso Marco Style Italian Armchair with Red Velvet
By Marco Zanuso
Located in Prato, Tuscany
We kindly suggest that you read the whole description, as with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects.
Very comfortable and elegant upholstered armchair; the frame is very solid with sturdy legs made of polished and brushed brass; the seat is deliberately low but large and comfortable; the wide overall appearance has soft and pleasing lines, perfect for conveying a feeling of comfort and well-being. The armchair was made between 1960 and 1963 by an artisan workshop in Meda (Milan, Italy) that collaborated with several Lombard architects; for the creation of the armchair, the artisans were inspired by architect Marco Zanuso, following his design. Marco Zanuso (1916-2001) was among the greatest interpreters of the culture of the modern, as an architect, designer, and university lecturer; he was one of the first designers to take an interest in the problems of product industrialization, going beyond the aesthetic question to incorporate technological, industrial, distribution and communication variables. The form of an object intended for serial reproduction, according to Zanuso, is thus a synthesis of opportunities, experimentation, and innovations located in the concrete process that links creativity, production, and sociocultural context. His countless creations include the Lady armchair, and the Antropus armchair...
