Lounge Chair attributed to Carlo Mollino by Antonio Gorgone, Italy 1950s
About the Item
Most designer chairs from Italy in the 1950s can be recognized by their heavily stylized frames in combination with often a less special-looking seating area that was primarily intended to provide comfort. We also see this premise lasts with this reclining armchair.
Design
The elegant beech wood frame has a warm and deep patina, creating an almost golden glow. Legs stand out from each other and therefore give the chair a dynamic character. The back legs are striking, and are shaped like a lightning bolt. Two brass caps are attached to the top of these back legs, which at the same time form the slides for the reclining function. The chair can therefore be placed in a lying position and easily pushed back into a sitting position. In both cases, the comfort is pleasant as the entire interior has been replaced, as has the upholstery, which is secured at the edges of the frame with several rows of decorative nails. Please note that the design of this chair is often attributed to Carlo Mollino and its manufacture is said to have been carried out by the Neapolitan company Antonio Gorgone.
Condition
This chair has been completely restored while retaining the patina in our studio and is in very good condition.

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...
