Offered in very good condition, original (1979, 1 owner) Cassina design armchair & footstool.
The Cassina Maralunga armchair is a masterful design by Vico Magistretti. Reportedly, one day Vico Magistretti was playing with a cigarette pack, contemplating what new sofa he would design. The opening and closing of the pack gave him a unique idea: an adjustable backrest. Independently, each backrest, just like the cigarette pack, can be 'folded' to a 90-degree angle. It became an exceptionally great success, and the armchair is still considered one of the most famous Italian design sofas. Quality, design, and comfort come together in Cassina's design, which holds a patent for the innovative mechanism for the backrests.
Executed in beautiful exclusive Cassina Pelle wild boar brown supple sturdy leather - priceless vintage patina (this exceptional quality furniture only gets more beautiful with time) - iconic design - MOMA museum - incredible comfort.

“I could never imagine designing furniture or anything that wouldn’t last long – it’s just something I couldn’t do.
I have never made cardboard furniture or anything else that was designed to deteriorate.
I think a good design should not be finite, but go in and out of vogue over long time spans,
retaining its potency even after a hundred years.”
