Pair of armchairs by Columbus

About the Item

This fascinating pair of armchairs, produced by the Columbus manufacturer, perfectly embodies the spirit and essence of the Bauhaus movement, with their blend of modern forms and functional materials. The curved tubular structure, typical of this style, seamlessly integrates with wooden elements, creating a design that is fluid and light, yet sturdy and durable. The sleek, dynamic lines of the bent tubular frame give a sense of lightness and movement, imparting a modern and timeless look to these armchairs. The elegant wooden armrests are flawlessly incorporated into the structure, offering a pleasing contrast between the solidity of the wood and the lightness of the metal. The originality of these armchairs is further highlighted by the presence of the original upholstery and cushions from the Bauhaus era, preserving the authentic charm of the period. The cushions, adorned with vibrant floral patterns in shades of orange and red, add a pop of color and personality, making them true collector's items. Despite the years, the original fabric is still in excellent condition, a testament to the care and quality of the materials used at the time. These armchairs are not just furniture but genuine pieces of design history. Their innovative form and timeless comfort make them ideal for both modern spaces and retro-style environments, bringing with them an enduring elegance and functionality that never goes out of style. A rare opportunity for those who wish to incorporate an authentic piece of Bauhaus into their space, a movement that redefined the aesthetic and functional standards of modern design.
