A striking example of mid-century Spanish brutalism, this armchair was produced by Biosca in Spain during the 1950s. Crafted from solid pine and thick saddle leather, the piece fuses rustic strength with timeless artisanal detail. The chair's robust geometry reflects Biosca’s signature craftsmanship, evoking the tactile legacy of 18th-century Spanish vernacular design.
The chair’s defining feature is its richly aged leather seat and backrest—secured with ornamental nails—showcasing decades of patina that amplify its authenticity. The thick, tactile leather has naturally worn in over time, offering both visual drama and enduring comfort. The frame, constructed from solid pine, remains beautifully solid, with a darkened grain that pairs handsomely with the warm tone of the leather.
