  • Pair of Beech 'Bastiano' Lounge Chairs, Afra & Tobia Scarpa, Italy, 1960

    Located in London, GB
    A pair of black leather and beech 'Bastiano' lounge chairs, designed by Afra and Tobia Scarpa in 1960. Scarpa designed these chairs as a part of the firm's experimental design studio.

We believe these to be early 1970s examples, produced shortly after Knoll acquired Gavina SpA...
