About the Item

In the manner of Melchiorre Bega, armchair, cherry, velvet fabric, Italy, 1950s This elegant piece of furniture is made in Italy in the 1950s. The stylistic elements and overall design distinctly showcase the refined craftsmanship and aesthetic of esteemed Italian designers, particularly reminiscent of the work of Melchiorre Bega. Crafted from cherry wood, the meticulously sculpted and faceted front legs are the defining elements of the piece. The armrests of this chair exhibit a sculpted and smooth form, gently extending forward in a graceful, organic curve. The armrests' surface is subtly concave with a gentle taper at the front to achieve a refined yet functional profile. The backrest exhibits a subtly flared trapezoidal shape, reinforcing the chair's sculptural quality while maintaining a clean, geometric silhouette. The burnt orange velvet fabric complements the warm-toned wood in a harmonious way. The deliberate shaping imbues the piece with a poised, sculptural quality, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship of Italian design in the 1950s. Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use, including wear marks on the fabric. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.

Mid-Century 366 Armchair in Orange Velvet, by Jozef Chierowski, Europe 1960s
By Jozef Chierowski
Located in 05-080 Hornowek, PL
The 366 armchair is an icon of the polish design of the PRL period. The famous armchair was designed in 1962 by the Polish interior designer and furniture designer Jozef Marian Chierowski. Produced in the Lower Silesian Furniture Factory in Swiebodzice. The chair has a simple, modernist form. It consists of an upholstered seat combined with a wooden backrest. The organic shape is typical of the 1960s style. The chair is very ergonomic and comfortable, as the furniture designs of that time were largely focused on the user. Due to its small size, the furniture fits perfectly into the interiors of contemporary apartments, perfectly meeting the needs of customers. The chair is in perfect condition after a professional renovation. We can prepare this set also in another wood and fabric color. About the fabric: This is special collection of velvet in a stunning color range of more than 100 different shades of both pure classic and non-obvious pastel broken colors. The colour palette has been created with extreme attention following the most recent trends. The unique feature of this fabric is its producing in nanotechnologies, so called WATER CLEAN, which gives it a high resistance to stains and facilitates the removal of stains from coffee, chocolate and even ink. This fabric is a perfect imitation of cotton velvet, gives the effect of softness and matte surface which works very well in heavy curtains...

Zanuso Marco Style Italian Armchair with Red Velvet
By Marco Zanuso
Located in Prato, Tuscany
We kindly suggest that you read the whole description, as with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects. Very comfortable and elegant upholstered armchair; the frame is very solid with sturdy legs made of polished and brushed brass; the seat is deliberately low but large and comfortable; the wide overall appearance has soft and pleasing lines, perfect for conveying a feeling of comfort and well-being. The armchair was made between 1960 and 1963 by an artisan workshop in Meda (Milan, Italy) that collaborated with several Lombard architects; for the creation of the armchair, the artisans were inspired by architect Marco Zanuso, following his design. Marco Zanuso (1916-2001) was among the greatest interpreters of the culture of the modern, as an architect, designer, and university lecturer; he was one of the first designers to take an interest in the problems of product industrialization, going beyond the aesthetic question to incorporate technological, industrial, distribution and communication variables. The form of an object intended for serial reproduction, according to Zanuso, is thus a synthesis of opportunities, experimentation, and innovations located in the concrete process that links creativity, production, and sociocultural context. His countless creations include the Lady armchair, and the Antropus armchair...
