Eugenio Gerli for Tecno 'P28' Pair of Lounge Chairs in Wengé

About the Item

Eugenio Gerli for Tecno, pair of armchairs, model 'P28', wengé, fabric, Italy, 1958 Eugenio Gerli designed these lounge chairs model 'P28' for the Italian furniture company Tecno in 1958. The frame is characterized by an open and clean construction with sleek, linear lines dominating the layout. This is contrasted by the roundness of the seat and backrest, breaking the strict lines that characterize the overall appearance. Noteworthy detail is the semi-circular shaped backrest that is covered with a soft ocher yellow fabric, providing the needing support for the sitter. Tecno was founded in 1953 by Osvaldo and Fulgenzio Borsani. The core idea upon which the company was born is the concept of dwellings that function as the foundation on which the quality of life is built. Although Tecno was led by functionalism, aesthetics has never been unimportant. The office world experience had an extreme growth in postwar Italy, and it was mainly to this world that Tecno dedicated their innovative design and craftsmanship.

  • Pair of Eugenio Gerli Model 126 Lounge Chairs Società Compensati Curvi, Italy
    By Società Compensati Curvati, Eugenio Gerli
    Located in Hellouw, NL
    These beautiful bentwood chairs were designed in 1958 by the Italian architect Eugenio Gerli for Società Compensatie Curvi. This company, which was located in Monza at the time, specialized in manufacturing highly stylized chairs made of bentwood with a modular choice offered to the customer. For example, there was a catalog showing that at that time you could choose from different types of bases and bodies. These specific lounge chairs are made up of seven layers of glued and bent teak veneer. A special example of craftsmanship and artistry in which technique and aesthetics effortlessly come together. The body is attached to a beautiful slender black-painted metal base by means of four bolts. The considerable contrast between the base and the seating area seems to make the chair float. The opening at the back of the seat allows for an angelic light...
