Upholstered Bouclé Club Chairs with Metal Legs, Europe 1970s

About the Item

This pair of club chairs from the 1970s stands as a captivating blend of timeless design influences. Fully upholstered in a luxurious white bouclé fabric, these chairs epitomize the essence of comfort and style. Their scalloped bodies exude a classic Art Deco charm, reminiscent of the glamorous aesthetics of the early 1900s. Typically low-backed and with an ample seat space, club chairs have a character of their own that can be attributed to their history. Club chairs, a term coined in the early 20th century, gained popularity due to their sumptuous cushioning and welcoming, enveloping design. Their rich upholstery provided the perfect sanctuary for relaxation, and they quickly became a symbol of sophistication and luxury in the post-World War I era. What makes these 1970s club chairs exceptional is the infusion of modern design elements. Starting with their distinctive metal legs that provide a sharp contrast to the soft, textured bouclé fabric. This small, albeit important feature creates a blend of design aesthetic that is entirely unique. This fusion of styles exemplifies the enduring appeal of club chairs; they evolved with the times while retaining their core allure. This pair also features thick seat cushions and scalloped backs that section the chairs and button tufting marking each section. The 1970s was a period of design exploration, where the fusion of previous design aesthetics with contemporary elements resulted in captivating furniture pieces like these club chairs. Their allure endures, showcasing how design elements from different eras can coexist, creating an ageless sense of style and comfort. Condition: In good vintage condition.

  • Italian Upholstered Chairs with Tubular Metal, Italy, ca 1970s
    Located in Utrecht, NL
    Throughout the 20th century, Italian design managed to distinguish itself. The 1970s were a boom time in Italy especially, a decade of mass production and innovation that signalled the end of the post-war rebuilding programme. Still, one off designs and the overflow of creativity were just as present, giving birth to outstanding pieces such as this pair of chairs. Following the economic boom of the 1950s, the motto “design dictates, users follow” was the matrix of mass consumption society in Italy. Against this idea, the artists, and designers of the coming decades defended a conception of design as an ecosystem that stressed the notion of play within everyday life. As a result, now iconic design were created, such as Adriano Piazzesi’s similar armchair, the “Sacco Bean Bag Chair” by Piero Gatti...
