This armchair, produced during the 1960s, exemplifies the restrained elegance of post-war European modernism. The black lacquered steel frame, with gently curved arm supports and a sled-style base, forms a confident architectural outline. The seat, backrest, and arm pads are crafted in thick cognac leather, secured with visible black rivets that emphasize the honest construction and lend a discreet industrial character. Over time, the leather has developed a rich patina, with subtle traces of use that enhance its tactile depth and authenticity. The combination of bent steel and saddle-stitched leather reflects the broader European modernist tradition of the 1960s, where functional clarity was softened by craftsmanship and warm natural materials, resulting in a sculptural yet inviting seat that integrates effortlessly into both curated mid-century interiors and contemporary architectural settings.
