Modernist Lounge Chair, Green Loden, 1970s

Modernist lounge chair in tubular chromed steel, camel velvet, Italy, 1970s With their sleek cantilever structure and soft round forms, these modernist lounge chairs encapsulate the radical spirit of 1970s Italian design. The chromed tubular steel frame defines a low-slung silhouette that balances structural clarity with sculptural presence. A continuous loop forms the base and supports both seat and backrest, showcasing an expressive mastery of bent metal—a material language that traces its roots back to the revolutionary designs of Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand in the 1930s, such as the iconic LC7 chair for Cassina.

Though the author of this piece remains unidentified, the chairs stand out as emblematic of the avant-garde production of the Italian furniture scene during the late 20th century, when designers sought new formal languages through material innovation and structural boldness. Comparable in spirit to Belotti’s “Spaghetti” chair...
