About the Item
Italian Blue Velvet Lounge Chair, 1970s – Original Upholstery
This stunning lounge chair is a true gem of 1970s Italian design, combining bold form, luxurious materials, and impeccable craftsmanship. Its sculptural silhouette and vibrant presence make it both a functional piece of furniture and an artistic statement. Upholstered in its original deep blue velvet, the chair features a distinctive, petal-like structure that wraps around the seat in a soft, organic form—reminiscent of the era's fascination with playful, nature-inspired design.
Measuring 100 cm wide, 90 cm deep, and 65 cm high, with a seat height of 38 cm, the chair is generously sized and designed for low, lounge-style seating. The enveloping shape offers superb comfort, ideal for relaxed living spaces, reading corners, or as a bold accent in a curated interior. The original velvet upholstery is beautifully preserved, showing only minor signs of use consistent with age, and is in excellent vintage condition.
The soft, tactile velvet paired with the rounded, plush design gives this piece a luxurious yet cozy appeal. Its aesthetic nods to iconic Italian designers of the 1970s, such as Mario Bellini, and the experimental spirit of the Radical Design movement. It's the kind of chair that doesn't just furnish a room—it defines it.
This lounge chair is a rare find for collectors and interior designers seeking authentic vintage Italian pieces with both style and historical value. Whether standing alone or styled alongside other mid-century or contemporary pieces, it brings a sense of character, comfort, and creativity to any space.
A timeless Italian classic with original upholstery—this chair is ready to make a statement in its next home.
