About the Item

Italian Modern armchair in the style of Marco Zanuso, Europe, 1970s, featuring a sculptural bentwood frame and original upholstery; reupholstery recommended. This sculptural Italian Modern armchair in the style of Marco Zanuso, produced in Europe during the 1970s, reflects the expressive modernist language and ergonomic sensibility associated with Italian design of the period. The chair features a bentwood frame with flowing curved armrests and legs, creating a continuous and architectural silhouette. The organic shaping and balanced proportions are characteristic of European modern furniture from the late 1960s and 1970s, closely aligned with the design vocabulary associated with Marco Zanuso. The armchair retains its original upholstery, preserving its authentic period character. The fabric shows visible wear and patina consistent with age and use. For contemporary interiors, daily use, or professional settings, reupholstery is recommended, offering excellent potential for customization. The chair is particularly suitable for bouclé, velvet, wool, or COM (Customer’s Own Material), making it highly attractive for US interior designers and hospitality projects. Structurally, the chair is sound and stable, with a strong bentwood frame showing a warm patina and minor age-related marks that enhance its character without compromising usability. The proportions remain comfortable and visually balanced, suitable for both residential and curated professional interiors. A distinctive European Italian Modern armchair from the 1970s, ideal as a statement piece or to pair with the matching sofa. Perfect for high-end residential interiors, boutique hotels, lounges, and curated design projects where originality, period authenticity, and upholstery customization are valued.
