Marco Zanuso pair of Woodline armchairs in black leather Arflex Italy 1964
Item description
Iconic pair of Woodline lounge chairs designed by Marco Zanuso for Arflex, Italy 1964. These fantastic shaped chairs feature a black lacquered plywood frame and the seat is covered with high quality black leather. The hanging seat construction is attached with metal elements to the wooden frame fitted with canvas. The loose cushions are removable easily. Due to the floating character, these lounge chairs seat extremely comfortable.
They are a seminal example of mid-century modern design, blending innovative construction with aesthetic elegance. The design features a distinctive wood frame that outlines the shape and structure of the chairs, providing a strong yet visually light support system.
These armchairs are not just seating; they are statement pieces that reflect the innovation and style of 1960s Italian design. Perfect for a sophisticated living room, office, or lounge area, they provide both a nod to the past and a timeless appeal.They are in very good original condition with a nice patina from age and usage.
An armchair with a striking, rigorous design, the outcome of research by Marco Zanuso on how to anchor a seat on a wood frame. Zanuso started work on this chair with his entry in an international design competition organised by the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1949. He returned to it in 1964, harnessing Arflex’s advanced technology. The wood frame is based on the geometry of the circle, which provides the chair's elegant formal aesthetic.
