About the Item

These striking black lacquer chairs are a compelling study in sculptural form and material tactility. Designed by Franco Poli for Bernini, Italy, in 1986. These chairs are crafted with a refined, minimal silhouette, they feature a curved backrest that transitions seamlessly into low, gently flared arms—a design that not only offers ergonomic support but also emphasizes the fluidity of the frame. The chairs’ slender legs enhance their light and elegant profile, giving them a poised presence from every angle. Constructed from solid wood and finished in a rich, glossy black lacquer, the chairs boast a surface that beautifully reflects light while accentuating their graceful contours. The black leather seat upholstery complements the lacquered frame, offering a soft, supple contrast that deepens with age. The patina on both the lacquer and the leather providing rich authenticity and depth to their character, highlight the honesty of the chairs materials. Perfect as statement dining or accent chairs, this pair embodies sophistication through form, function, and the enduring beauty materials. These chairs are sold individually, to purchase both please add two to your cart.
