About the Item
These striking french lounge chairs from the 1970s feature a bold cantilevered silhouette crafted from polished chrome, showcasing the era’s fascination with gravity-defying forms and industrial elegance. Reupholstered in a rich olive green velvet, their low-slung proportions and deep, tufted cushions evoke both comfort and cinematic sophistication.
Why we love them
The sculptural lines, futuristic chrome arcs, and luxurious velvet make these chairs feel like icons of their time — and yet timeless.

Modernist lounge chairs in tubular chromed steel, green loden, Italy, 1970, set of 2
With their sleek cantilever structure and soft round forms, these modernist lounge chairs encapsulate the radical spirit of 1970s Italian design. The chromed tubular steel frame defines a low-slung silhouette that balances structural clarity with sculptural presence. A continuous loop forms the base and supports both seat and backrest, showcasing an expressive mastery of bent metal—a material language that traces its roots back to the revolutionary designs of Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand in the 1930s, such as the iconic LC7 chair for Cassina.
The round backrests and wide seats are upholstered in loden, lending warmth, tactility, and visual depth to the otherwise minimal composition. The contrast between the industrial frame and the sensual textile echoes the experimental ethos of postmodern design—reminiscent of the formal investigations by Giandomenico Belotti or Cini Boeri, whose work often blended technical precision with emotional softness.
Though the author of these chairs remains unidentified, their design reflects the avant-garde energy of the Italian furniture scene in the late 20th century—a moment defined by material experimentation and structural boldness. Comparable in spirit to Belotti’s “Spaghetti” chair...
