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 are with original fabric. But in excellent original condition, with minor patina on the wood parts.
Please note that the material shows signs of wear and use and that 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.
When you choose for used mid-century design, you use what is already there, making it sustainable. You may not give the furniture a second, but even a third or fourth life. Mid-century design furniture is often a high-quality product that lasts several lives for a reason. Some furniture has a rich history, and the story is still visible or tangible with some. The signs of wear give a glimpse into the previous owner's life.

Italian Modern Upholstered Armchairs with Tapered Feet, Italy, circa 1950s
Located in Utrecht, NL
The Mid-Century Modern era is notable for its blending of Classic modern design elements with a slightly more updated feel. This beautiful pair of Italia lounge chairs has a Classic, comfortable style that is a prime example of the best qualities of what is referred to as Modernism in European design.
Several key factors define the Italian approach to design: respect for craftsmanship, quality materials and finally, an elegant, high-end look. Upholstered cabinetmaker chairs may seem similar at first sight; however, each model’s individuality becomes evident upon closer inspection. In these chairs’ case, their thick, welcoming shape and the sleek, tapered wooden feet Stand out immediately. The design has achieved a perfect balance between form and function, in which aesthetics and utility come together in a purely Mid-Century Modern manner. The fully upholstered wooden frames rest on dark lacquered wood legs. The feet are splayed to support stability, while their stylish dark colour contrast to the elegant, light upholstery. The backs are relatively low, enhancing the stylish look along with the thick arms, backs, and seat cushions. Together these design elements create a modern look with the beloved organic, curvy aesthetic. The exceptionally soft, textured fabric highlights the bodies’ rounded edges and sheer volume.
Italy was especially passionate about furniture and product design during the mid-century, an area where the country remained faithful to a figurative repertoire of substantial classicism, while not disdaining impulses of authentic modernity. As a result, Italian modern furniture...

European Mid-Century Modern Upholstered Lounge Chairs, Europe, circa 1950s
Located in Utrecht, NL
Mid-Century Modern, a design movement devoted to timeless functionalism established itself in the post-war period with furniture that appealed to the senses. Furniture design was guided by the famous maxim: “Form follows function.”
For midcentury designers, materials were used for their own distinct; often a piece of furniture would combine only two materials or colours – creating tension and harmony without fuss or superfluous ornament and these fully upholstered lounge chairs are perfect examples of this sentiment. The duality of two materials and colour scheme create an elegant, self-supporting, and enticingly functional design. The combination of solid wood and high-quality upholstery is traditional in mid-century design for a good reason. The two materials complement each other by highlighting their unique material qualities. This pair falls into the category of the so-called biomorphic midcentury: furniture that relished in organic, curved, smooth surfaces, design that was moulded into the shapes of natural occurrences, and which was a lively contrast to the more austere machine aesthetic...
