About the Item

Ico Parisi (Attributed) armchairs in fabric and tapered wooden legs, Italy 1950s Ico and Luisa Parisi (Attributed) designed a pair of collectible Italian mid-century armchairs for Ariberto Colombo in the early 1950s. The angular shape of the back and sides and the cone-shaped wooden feet were a staple of Italian design during the period. These fine armchairs come with original fabric but are in excellent original condition, with minor patina on the wood parts. Please note that the material shows signs of wear and use, and we advise reupholstery before use. These elegant armchairs would be an eye-catching addition to any interior, such as the living room, family room, screening room, or office. It also perfectly fits in a hospitality or corporate location like a boutique hotel lobby, cocktail bar, members club, or luxury loft. Using mid-century design means utilizing what is already there, making it sustainable. This type of furniture often lasts for several lives due to its high quality. Some pieces may have a rich history, and the signs of wear give a glimpse into the previous owner's life. Domenico "Ico" Parisi and his wife Luisa were a prolific postwar duo known for their diverse furniture designs, from ebonized dining chairs to the iconic 1951 Egg chair. Parisi, born in 1916 in Palermo, Sicily, developed an interest in architecture and design in Como. After serving in World War II, he founded two architecture groups and married Luisa Aiani, with whom he founded the studio La Ruota. Their designs, including curved sofas and armchairs, were created for enduring Italian manufacturers like Cassina.
