About the Item
This rare pair high back armchairs were custom designed for a municipal building in Utrecht, The Netherlands in the early 1950s. The generously sized dimensions and very high back make this a striking, distinctive design. The legs and armrests are in solid wengé wood. The chairs have been fully reconditioned and newly upholstered in a beautiful green velvet by Braquenié / Pierre Frey. The 'Zao' velvet has a scale motif, finished with a delicate metallic thread that highlights the design.

Ignazio Gardella 'Digamma' Armchair in Emerald Green Lelièvre Fabric and Brass
By Santa & Cole, Lelièvre Paris, Ignazio Gardella
Located in The Hague, NL
Designed by Ignazio Gardella in 1957, the Digamma lounge chair is a comfortable chair with roots in the late Italian modernist tradition.
Its rational construction features two geometric sections - the rectangular upholstered back and seat - bound by a firm upholstered frame. The black metallic legs are finished off with Gardella's iconic brass 'duck' feet. The armchair has a three-position reclining backrest offering additional comfort and adjustability.
This chair is a custom version realized by Santa & Cole for Kabinet Hubert, upholstered and sewn by hand in an emerald green Lelièvre fabric. This soft and dense fabric is a delicate combination of chenille and bouclé yarns.
Ignazio Gardella was a member of the so-called third generation of the Modern Movement. He is considered one of the greatest exponents of Italian Rationalism, although he followed its principles in a much more personal way, searching to overcome its limitations. In 1957, he created the Digamma armchair...
