Lounge Chairs Model “Zinzolo” By Vittorio Varo For Plan, Italy 1960s
About the Item
Lounge chairs model “Zinzolo” by Vittorio Varo for Plan.With the so-called “Zinzolo” project for Plan in the sixties, the Italian designer Vittorio Varo took a radically different direction from what people expected from a lounge chair. The design incorporates a modern conception of seating comfort and is at odds with the classic due to its futuristic character and space-age-like looks.Basically there are two separate lounge chairs that have an armrest on one right side and one on the left side that protrudes from under the chair with an arc. So they can also be transformed into a sofa if desired.The sloping and bulky shapes are created by a wooden frame that is richly filled with foam that provides a particularly pleasant seating comfort. The legs are formed by two metal brackets with rubber bumpers at the ends. You can actually only see this just sticking out at the back of the seats. Very subtle.The original warm chocolate brown leather has been fully restored and exudes luxury and quality. The leather can be removed from the frame with zippers. What is striking is that everything is double stitched on the edges and seams of both the armrests and the seating area. Pure craftsmanship combined with a contemporary and completely free take on the design of that time by Vittorio Varo.The vintage status of these chairs has not detracted from the graceful way in which they have stood the test of time. Needless to say they are therefore in very good condition."

- Pair of Eugenio Gerli Model 126 Lounge Chairs Società Compensati Curvi, ItalyBy Società Compensati Curvati, Eugenio GerliLocated in Hellouw, NLThese beautiful bentwood chairs were designed in 1958 by the Italian architect Eugenio Gerli for Società Compensatie Curvi. This company, which was located in Monza at the time, specialized in manufacturing highly stylized chairs made of bentwood with a modular choice offered to the customer. For example, there was a catalog showing that at that time you could choose from different types of bases and bodies. These specific lounge chairs are made up of seven layers of glued and bent teak veneer. A special example of craftsmanship and artistry in which technique and aesthetics effortlessly come together. The body is attached to a beautiful slender black-painted metal base by means of four bolts. The considerable contrast between the base and the seating area seems to make the chair float. The opening at the back of the seat allows for an angelic light...Category
