Pair of Chiavari Chairs
About the Item
The delicate, lightweight chiavari chair was first made in the Italian town of Chiavari in the early years of the 19th century. Their elegance and grace would come to charm Mid-Century Modernists, and inspire Gio Ponti to create his Superleggera chair. Unlike most midcentury chiavari chairs, which have cushioned seats and were cast in brass elsewhere, our pair were carved from wood, painted white, decorated in gold, and have finely-caned seats, in addition to bearing the maker's label Zunino & Rivarola, of Chiavari itself.

- Pair of John Vesey "Maximilian Lounge Chairs"By John VeseyLocated in New York, NYThe “Maximilian Lounge Chair” was John Vesey’s finest and most celebrated chair design — it was also his most expensive one to produce, and appeared in a 1959 issue of Vogue. The aluminum frame was wrought rather than cast, solid rather than assembled, and polished to a seamless satiny sheen. An industrial-aluminum screen supports the black-leather upholstery tufted in a pattern that harks back to the 19th century. So too does the chair’s form that’s based on low-slung Latin American planters’ chairs. One that belonged to the ill-fated Emperor Maximilian of Mexico...Category
