Pair of Brass and Velvet Italian Chairs in the Style of the 1950s

A striking pair of Italian side chairs with a gracefully tapered brass frame and sculptural ladder backrest. The re-upholstered lime green velvet seat cushions add a playful yet elegant contrast.

These chairs reflect the revival of mid-century Italian design popular in the 1980s — echoing the sophisticated lines of Gio Ponti and the decorative edge of Guglielmo Ulrich.

 Why we love them:

Their slender silhouette, luminous brass, and bold upholstery strike a balance between poetic nostalgia and timeless glamour.
