Pr G Maletti Lounge Chairs Style of Onda by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti Italia

About the Item

Vintage pair of handsome lounge chairs produced by G. Maletti. These chairs are made in the style of the Onda chair by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti Italia. They are in wonderful vintage condition. The chrome has minor scratching as you would expect with age. The upholstery is good on the surface but there are some flaws under the head pad flaps, some wear to the arm covering, and the upholstery is mismatched. The result is new upholstery may be preferred but is not required. We believe these to be circa 1970s as are the originals. We have priced these chairs as a pair. These chairs are fantastic! They are done in the style of the Onda chair which was designed by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti Italia in the 1970s. However, these have chrome arms and are labeled on the bottom G. Maletti. G. Maletti is a high quality and innovative fixtures furniture company based in Italy providing furniture to hairdresser and beauty salons across the world since 1936. After extensive online research I have not been able to tie Giovanni Offredi to G. Maletti; however, Philippe Starck did design fixtures furniture for Maletti, so it is not out of the question that these chairs are the product of a modification of the Onda chair by Giovanni Offredi himself. Whether or not they are, they are fabulous! Comprised of a chrome flat steel bar cantilevered frame with Naugahyde upholstery. One chair is all gray the other is gray and burgundy. We have priced them as a pair. You need to make them yours! Chair: ? Height – 31.5 inches ? Width – 26 inches ? Depth – 29 inches ? Seat height – 17 inches ? Arm height – 23.5 inches ? Inside seat width – 23 inches ? Inside seat depth – 18 inches ? Inside back height – 18 inches ? Weight – 45.6 pounds each Crated size 2 chairs: ? Height – 53 inches ? Width – 32 inches ?

Vintage Mid-Century Modern Club Lounge Chair by Flair Division for Bernhardt
By Bernhardt
Located in Topeka, KS
Handsome Mid-Century Modern club chair or lounge chair from the Flair Division of Bernhardt Furniture. It is in wonderful vintage condition and wearing its original light turquoise blue nubby fabric. It has been professionally cleaned but the fabric does have fading as you would expect and there are still stains but no holes or tears. It will be at its best recovered. It is priced accordingly. Please see photos, circa 1960s. I must tell you when we walked into the home where we obtained this chair and many of our other recent and soon to be offerings, I thought if I was ever going to faint this is the time. Of course, the house itself blew me away and then……the original furniture and art in all its glory. This chair is part of a three-piece living room suite by Bernhardt Furniture Flair Division and we are offering all three pieces this week. This club chair with its Lawson styling and loose cushions is really comfy; plus, it is held up off the floor with a fabulous base. The base or legs are comprised of a pair of walnut planks turned upright and running from front to back on each side of the chair. Simple yet dynamic. Bernhardt Furniture was established in 1889 by John Mathias Bernhardt and has been going strong for over 125 years. He spent many years out west in Oregon Territory. After a serious illness, traveling back home to Lenoir, North Carolina and working as a logger in the densely forested foothills of Grandfather Mountain...
