About the Item
Set of three Marcel D armchairs designed by Kazuhide Takahama for Gavina, one of the most renowned Italian furniture manufacturers. Produced in the 1960s, these stunning pieces feature a sleek and modernist design, with a minimalist aesthetic and exceptional comfort.
The name "Marcel D" is a nod to the French artist Marcel Duchamp, a pioneer of conceptual art and a major influence on the development of modern and contemporary art. Takahama's design pays homage to Duchamp's spirit of innovation and experimentation.
Each armchair has been meticulously restored to its original condition, with attention to every detail. The frames are made from high-quality steel, while the seats and backrests are upholstered in premium Alcantara fabric, a iconic and durable material that adds a touch of sophistication to the design.
The Marcel D armchair is a masterpiece of Italian mid-century modern design, characterized by its clean lines, simple shapes, and exceptional craftsmanship. This set of three armchairs is a rare opportunity to own a piece of design history that is sure to add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any room.

Kazuhide Takahama
Kazuhide Takahama was a Japanese designer born in Miyazaki, Japan. After graduating from the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1953, Takahama designed the Japanese Pavilion for the Milan Triennale. There he met Dino Gavina, and over the next decade, Takahama designed several pieces for Gavina.
Later, Takahama also collaborated with B&B Italia, Simon and Knoll, just to name a few. His designs are clear in line and shape and have a high-quality design. With the functionalist approach to modernism, he designed with a Japanese sense of material and aesthetics conveniently combined with Western elements.
