About the Item

Vittorio Varo for I.P.E., lounge chair, model 'Cigno, fabric, chrome-plated metal, Italy, 1968. The Italian designer Vittorio Varo created a striking design that adds a vibrant allure to your room and intensifies the experience of relaxing itself.

The large seat and tilted backrest ensure that it is a true delight to have a pleasant and enjoyable time while sitting on it. The striped fabric has a glamorous look in gold and beige tones. The artistry and well-conceived proportions of this particular lounge chair allows you to place it as a visual statement in your interior.
