Pair of Lounge Chairs Attributed to Gio Ponti for ISA Bergamo, Italy 1950s

About the Item

This elegant pair of lounge chairs is attributed to the Italian designer Gio Ponti and was produced by ISA Bergamo in Italy during the 1950s. Several of Ponti’s designs had been manufactured by the ISA company in the late 1940s and ‘50s. The chairs of this pair are gracefully resting on four brass-coloured metal curved feet. The strong lines and proportions of the chairs are perfectly balanced with the short-sized feet. The armrests point slightly upwards, creating a modern and welcoming look. The high back and tilted position of the backrests make the chairs not only very comfortable but also aesthetically distinctive. Both chairs have been recently reupholstered in a grey-ivory coloured premium bouclé fabric. The upholstery also features stylish button tufting on the backrests. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Recently reupholstered in a premium bouclé fabric.

Sculptural Lounge Chairs by Nino Zoncada for Frimar, Italy 1950s
By Nino Zoncada
Located in Utrecht, NL
The postwar boom years of the 1950s through to the 1960s were one of the periods of greatest influence of Italian designers. Design in the 50s paved a way to a more aesthetical approach to products as opposed to its utilitarian predecessors, resulting in exceptional pieces like these lounge chairs. Giovanni “Nino” Zoncada was an Italian furniture designer who worked extensively designing furniture and interiors for luxury ships. In the late 1940s, Zoncada collaborated with Gio Ponti in the interior design of the cruise liners Conte Biancamano and Conte Grande. Among his most famous furniture designs are these iconic and richly upholstered lounge chairs with relatively high and curved armrests. This pair of lounge chairs combines a luxurious dark velvet fabric...
