About the Item

This armchair draws inspiration from the aesthetics of Postmodernism; a period defined by its eclectic approach, where designers often mixed unconventional materials and colours. The juxtaposition of materials creates a striking visual contrast that is both functional and decorative. The body of this armchair is constructed from iron slats which elegantly surround the seat, forming both the backrest and armrests. These slats are meticulously arranged to create a geometric, almost sculptural look. The design blends the raw strength of metal with the softness of the cushions. The cushions are upholstered in a blue textured fabric that adds warmth and comfort to the overall design. The upholstery balances the chair visually, contrasting with the robustness of the metal and softening the look. This contrast results in an iconic design that feels bold and inviting. The unique interplay of visual elements, textures, and materials not only increases the versatility of this piece, but showcases the talented decision-making of its designer. This armchair would be a stunning addition to any modern or industrial-inspired interior. A fusion of postmodernist ideals and practical craftsmanship, this chair embodies the spirit of timeless European innovation and contemporary sensibility. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The chair has recently been reupholstered in a premium fabric. Each of our items can be re-upholstered by our in-house atelier in a fabric of choice.
