About the Item

The I.S.A. (Industria Salotti e Arredamenti) manufacture also known as ISA, ISA Bergamo and ISA Italia was founded in the late 1940s near Bergamo in Ponte San Pietro. It produced a series of striking models designed by Gio Ponti and Ico and Luisa Parisi. It made furniture and seating models for Veronesi, Fiori and Morelli. In the 1960s he had a department producing furniture for the U.S. market. During this period he acquired a license to produce the famous Sheriff Chair by Brazilian architect Sergio Rodrigues. It is interesting to read Tino Sana's biography titled "The Orphan Who Could Dream" where in one chapter he recounts his experience as a skilled worker at ISA during the economic boom years. Here we have a pair of armchairs produced in '50s by ISA Bergamo and desgined by Gio Ponti. Each armchair has the structure in wood, feet in bronzed aluminium, upholstery in white velvet. New upholstery and new padding. Very good condition.
