About the Item

A striking pair of Italian side chairs with a gracefully tapered brass frame and sculptural ladder backrest. The re-upholstered lime green velvet seat cushions add a playful yet elegant contrast. These chairs reflect the revival of mid-century Italian design popular in the 1950s-60s — echoing the sophisticated lines of Gio Ponti and the decorative edge of Guglielmo Ulrich. Why we love them: Their slender silhouette, luminous brass, and bold upholstery strike a balance between poetic nostalgia and timeless glamour. Details: • Italy, circa 1950s–60s • Brass structure, velvet upholstery • Excellent vintage condition, fully restored • Price is for the pair ----- We are an exhibition space and an online destination established by the passionate art director behind Jonathan Amar Studio.
