About the Item

We kindly suggest you read the whole description, because with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to guarantee the authenticity of our objects. To reduce shipping costs, especially for bulky and heavy items. Pair of comfortable and original armchairs compre il poof ; the frame is very solid with wooden legs; the backrest is wide and enveloping, the seat is wide and comfortable; the elegant slightly oval section legs are tapered downward and are an integral part of the whole design; very graceful and distinctive is the brass protection at the end of the two front legs; the armchairs are upholstered still with their original fabric of cotton in a beautiful refined sand color; the overall appearance is curvilinear with soft lines, perfect for conveying a feeling of comfort and well-being. The armchairs were created between 1950 and 1954 by master craftsmen from Milan who worked in collaboration with designer Gugliemo Ulrich on his important designs. Guglielmo Ulrich was born in Milan in 1904 to Alberto and Luisa Battaglia. Of a noble family of Danish origin, he attended the Academy of Brera and, after two years, in 1928 he graduated in architecture at the Politecnico di Milano. Architect, designer, interior decorator, and painter, Ulrich was one of the most interesting multifaceted artists of the last century who undoubtedly found his greatest expression in the world of design between the '40s and '70s of the twentieth century. What is striking about Ulrich's work is precisely his ability to combine innovation and the new identity of Italian design. A unique ability to create a link between tradition and innovation. The two skillfully and expertly constructed armchairs are able to give style and aesthetic personality to any room, have a personal and unrepeatable charm, are a discreet and original piece of furniture, able to create calm and tranquil atmospheres, give romance and refinement; in addition, the sandy, light color that matches perfectly with other colors and lends itself to different styles of home, from traditional to modern. The armchairs are in good condition. Measurements width cm.56, depth cm.50, height cm.80, seat cm.38.
