About the Item
A striking pair of Italian armchairs designed by Agostino Lescai for Bedding Brevetti, Italy, circa 1970s. Upholstered in sumptuous deep blue velvet, the chairs feature a sculptural, low-slung form that balances bold lines with luxurious comfort. A beautifully executed stainless steel detail wraps around the armrests of each chair, offering a sleek visual contrast to the richness of the upholstery. The velvet reveals a subtle brown hue when viewed from certain angles; not a flaw or stain, but rather an inherent characteristic of the fabric that enhances its depth and texture under light.
These armchairs are a quintessential expression of 1970s Italian design: glamorous, confident, and refined, making them ideal accent pieces for both modernist and eclectic interiors.
Bedding Brevetti was a prominent Italian furniture manufacturer known for its innovative approach to form and materials during the postwar design boom. The company collaborated with leading designers of the era and even produced pieces for the iconic architect Ettore Sottsass. Among its noteworthy contributors was Agostino Lescai, a designer and architect whose work is characterised by a blend of sculptural modernism and technical precision. Lescai’s pieces for Bedding Brevetti, such as this pair of armchairs, exemplify his refined sense of proportion and his interest in tactile, high-quality materials, hallmarks of Italian design in the 1970s.
