About the Item

Afra & Tobia Scarpa "925" easy chairs for Cassina, plywood and red leather, Italy, 1966, set of two. In 1966 Afra & Tobia Scarpa designed the "925" chair, realized in walnut and leather. The low chair is inspired by a sketch made in 1943 by the architect Carlo Scarpa, Tobia's father, and uses the solutions adopted for the "121" chair. The overall measurements and thickness of the planks find completely new proportions: the side of the seat increases, the height of the feet, and the design of the back are modified to create an enveloping shape. The initial idea is to put together a cube with a petal. The elegance of a petal becomes the back of the chair, and the structure is the cube that indicates the object's solidity. An elegant easy chair is characterized by the formal rigidity of the frame, which contrasts with the lightness of the shape of the backrest. The seat's comfort is entrusted to the anatomical conformation and the natural elasticity of the cantilevered backrest on the crosspiece. Our atelier carefully checked the chairs. All the signs and imperfections on the surface are natural leather features, enhancing the material's natural beauty. Our atelier offers custom restoration and special reupholstering on request. Contact us to create the object you desire.
