Product description
This pair of vintage armchairs showcases the bold geometry and material contrasts characteristic of postmodern design. The chairs, produced in the late 1970s or early 1980s, have a black painted steel frame with sharp, architectural lines, accented by solid Sipo mahogany armrests and a matching flat mahogany back panel.
The generous seat is upholstered in a deep navy blue corduroy-like fabric that provides both comfort and a tangible contrast to the industrial frame. The beveled ends of the armrests and exposed woodwork give the chairs a sculptural look, making them suitable as dining room, meeting or statement seating.
Their aesthetic combines postmodern playfulness with a brutalist edge, combining strict geometry with the warmth of natural wood. This duality reflects the intersection between late modernist rigor and the emerging postmodern design trends of the time, often found in small-scale workshop productions.
Perfect for collectors of vintage postmodern and brutalist furniture, or for anyone looking for a statement piece with both graphic precision and warmth.
