About the Item

An Italian armchair and ottoman from the 1950s, crafted in wrought iron. The chair’s high back unfolds in a rectilinear grid, crowned with ball finials and anchored by splayed feet. Leather-look vinyl straps, braided and knotted at the uprights, form suspended armrests. The matching ottoman echoes the same forged frame, raised on curved legs joined by an X-form stretcher. Newly upholstered cushions in warm ivory wool-blend fabric lend comfort and contrast to the linear frames. Airy and elegant, the set styles easily beside a low table, in a sunroom, or within a garden room. Condition: Great vintage condition. The wrought iron frames retain their original patina with surface wear consistent with age. Vinyl straps show light marks from use, structurally intact. The seat cushions have been reupholstered by our team of restorationists in an ivory wool-blend fabric with new foam. The backrest moves but is not meant to recline. Additional Dimensions: Arm Height: 26.5"
