- Pair of Mid-Century Armchairs by Raffaella Crespi for Mobilia, Italy, 1960sBy Raffaella Crespi, MobiliaLocated in Utrecht, NLThese Italian chairs were designed with high attention to detail, which is visible in the unique curves and clear geometric shapes. Characterized by silky lines and textures, this pair is exemplary of Italian mid-century design. This pair feature uniquely shaped, slim legs that are held together by the cross-shaped seat.
