Tito Agnoli lounge chairs for Mobilia Italy 1961
About the Item
Rare lounge chairs designed by Tito Agnoli and manufactured by Mobilia in Itay in 1961. These chairs were made in very limited quantities, makes them rare and pretty unique. Their structure is made from rosewood and the chairs are reupholstered with a white bouclé. The armrests flow fluidly like waves making it have a soft and inviting appearance. There’s a beautiful contrast between the materials used. The chairs upholstery on the seat and back very nicely shaped and in the same curves as their arms. The most eye-catching element of these chairs are their legs. They run the entire height of the front and back. It's a clever play on point of view by Agnoli. Additionally the legs have a subtle double edge detail at the bottom and a slight bend at the back. The sofa is not included in this listing but can be purchased here.
Kindly note that the listed price is for the pair of chairs.

Tito Agnoli
Prolific designer Tito Agnoli created imaginative furniture with a singular mix of natural and industrial materials. Designing in the modern and mid-century modern styles, he made sofas, armchairs and daybeds from leather, bamboo and rattan as well as metal table lamps and floor lamps.
Born into an Italian family in Peru in 1931, Agnoli studied at the Faculty of Architecture in Milan. In 1949, he graduated with a degree in architecture from Politecnico di Milano. While there, he became acquainted with designers Gio Ponti and Carlo De Carli. He later worked with them as an assistant, learning to create austere pieces with flawless dimensions.
Utilizing this knowledge, he developed his own practice and worked with many Italian producers, including Arflex, Cinova, Lema, Matteo Grassi, Molteni, Montina, Oluce, Pierantonio Bonacina, Poltrona Frau, Schiffini and Ycami.
Agnoli received prestigious nominations for the Compasso d’Oro award. At the 1986 NeoCon exhibition in Chicago, he won a gold medal. His works are in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
