Gio Ponti For Casa E Giardino Midcentury Armchairs in cotton green velvet upholstery Italy 1940s
These elegant pair of mid century Italian armchairs are not only comfortable but also incredibly elegant. Their unique design features a gently sloping dome-shaped back and a scalloped front that finishes on rounded and tapered outreaching legs made of oak. The chairs are perfect for a smaller seating area, providing a comfortable and firm seat with sloping sides to rest one's arms. Designed by Gio Ponti for "Casa e Giardino" in Italy in the 1940s, these lounge chairs have recently been reupholstered with new velvet fabric. They are in perfect condition, with patina on the wood parts. These chairs are a striking addition to any interior space, making a statement whether in the living room, family room, screening room, office, boutique hotel lobby, cocktail bar, members club, or luxury boutique. Gio Ponti was an Italian architect, founder, and director of Domus, known for his attention to surface and simplicity in the relation of structure to form. Ponti's innovative spirit was evident throughout his career as he went beyond the return to neoclassicism that characterized early twentieth-century architecture.
