Hollywood Regency Style Italian Bedroom Armchair

About the Item

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. Pretty and vexatious Italian bedroom chair; the shape is particularly pleasing, the front legs are "cabriole," while the very slender back legs are cylindrical tapered, and turned; all legs are black lacquered wood. The upholstery, in smooth purple velvet, was made at a later date, a fine trimmings decoration was placed from the armrests along the entire back, and even under the seat and around the top of the legs, a decorative detail that adds a touch of elegance and personality to the armchair. Our seat was produced in the "Hollywood" style between 1950 and 1955 in Brianza, a region located north of Milan, Italy, which was and still is famous for the production of high-quality furniture, including armchairs; numerous companies and artisans operated in the area and contributed to the production of luxury armchairs. The armchairs of the 1950s often featured curved and sinuous shapes, with rounded backs and rounded or slightly sloping armrests. These soft curves gave the armchairs a cozy and comfortable look. The armchairs of the 1950s were often designed to fit the bedroom spaces of the time, which tended to be smaller than today's rooms. As a result, 1950s armchairs were often compact in size and did not take up too much space. In addition, 1950s armchairs featured a unique retro style that made them instantly recognizable. They were often characterized by a combination of classic elegance and a touch of modernity, with the use of bold colors and wrap-around shapes. The Hollywood style in furniture is an aesthetic inspired by the golden era of Hollywood, from the 1920s to the 1950s. This style is characterized by luxurious, glamorous, and opulent elements, often with a touch of eccentricity. Hollywood-style furniture is characterized by curvaceous and elegant lines. Chairs, armchairs, sofas, and beds often feature rounded shapes or accentuated curves. The armchair is in good condition. Measures width cm.51, depth cm.50, height cm.100, seat cm.34. For all our shipments we use special packing materials (custom-made wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) for maximum protection and safety of the items.

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...
