Giulia Veronesi 'Perla' Armchairs by ISA Bergamo, Walnut, Italy, 1952

About the Item

A beautiful and rare pair 'Perla' armchairs, designed by Giulia Veronesi and produced by ISA Bergamo, Italy, circa 1952. The chairs are highly sculptural works, with their sensual back and curved upward arms. The elegant tapered and angled black painted walnut legs give the chairs a highly modernist and sophisticated feel. Fully restored and reupholstered in a Belgium wool and cotton textured blend in creamy/white. With their highly sculptural, organic and modernist feel these chairs are suitable for any interior style. Designed by Giulia Veronesi. Produced by I.S.A. Bergamo, Italy, circa 1952. Size: 31 1/2" back height x 31” wide x 17 1/2" seat height x 28” deep x 25 1/4" arm height Bibliography: Domus No. 274, October 1952, page 4. Additional note: The designer has been credited as G. Veronesi in the ISA advertisement in Domus. Previously, Guglielmo Veronesi was assumed to be the full name. However recent research has indicated it was in fact the female designer, Giulia Veronesi who designed the 'Perla' chair.
