Erik Magnussen Z Folding Chairs in Green w new Belgian Linen, Bieffeplast 1965

A splendid brass example of the Chiavari style first developed in the coastal town of Chiavari, south of Milan, Italy. This particular specimen is in excellent condition, with a lovely recent restoration of the upholstery, well cushioned, in a tasteful dark green velvet. The chair is in very sound condition and is of a higher quality than others we have handled - notably the shaping of the feet and the back are particularly fine.

It’s intended as a decorative chair for hallways, as a bedside chair, or can be used as a feature chair...
