About the Item
This pair of Italian armchairs dates from the 1950s and reflects the refined material contrasts and decorative sensibility characteristic of the period. Each armchair is constructed with a metal and wood frame, providing a solid structural base while maintaining a visually balanced and elegant profile.
The seating is hand upholstered in a contrasting combination of velvet fabrics. The seat and backrest are covered in a greenish grey velvet, introducing depth, softness, and a subtle chromatic nuance. The armrests are upholstered in a geometric green fabric, adding visual rhythm and a decorative accent that enhances the overall composition. This interplay of textures and patterns highlights the careful attention given to upholstery and surface treatment.
The armchairs are supported by black lacquered iron tube legs, which introduce a clean, graphic contrast to the softness of the velvet upholstery. The combination of metal structure and rich textiles creates a harmonious balance between comfort and structure. As a pair, these armchairs offer both functional seating and strong visual character, making them well suited to mid-century inspired interiors as well as more eclectic or contemporary spaces.
