About the Item

This pair of Italian mid century armchairs dates from the 1950s and reflects the refined yet functional design language of the period. Each armchair features integrated armrests and a well balanced structure that combines comfort with visual clarity. The chairs are upholstered by hand in maxi houndstooth wool, a bold textile choice that introduces strong graphic character and texture. The scale of the pattern enhances the sculptural quality of the seats while maintaining a timeless elegance associated with mid century interiors. The upholstery work highlights careful craftsmanship and attention to detail, reinforcing the tactile and visual appeal of the pieces. Both armchairs rest on a black iron structure that provides stability and contrast against the wool fabric. Brass levelers finish the base, adding a subtle decorative accent while ensuring practical adjustability. Together, the materials create a harmonious balance between softness and structure. As a pair, these armchairs work well in both vintage inspired and contemporary settings, offering comfortable seating alongside a distinctive mid century aesthetic grounded in quality materials and thoughtful design.
