By Studio BBPR
Located in Milan, IT
Set of 3 Italian Mid-century Modern Wooden and Green Velour Chairs, 1948
Coveted set of 3 chairs in perfect shape, beautiful details on the wooden structure and precious cushioning in great conditions.
BBPR was a studio of architects, urban planners and designers, composed by Gian Luigi Banfi, Lodovico Barbiano di Belgiojoso, Enrico Peressutti and Ernesto Nathan Rogers.
