Set of 2 Medea Armchairs by Vittorio Nobili for Fratelli Tagliabue, Italy, 1955

About the Item

Set of two fully restored 'Medea' chairs by Vittorio Nobili for Fratelli Tagliabue. These lovely chairs used to be upholstered but we removed the vinyl and sandpapered them and then lacquered them three (!) times. We also made the metal of the legs nice again resulting in a very nice set. Lots of hours of work were spent bút the most satifying work there is because of the very nice result. Hope you like them too. What else needs to be said about these chairs; they speak for themselves. We think it's one of the most iconic designs in the 20th century. We also have 4 available without armrest in case you need 6.
