Description

This sculptural set of armchairs, designed by Giuseppe Scapinelli in the 1950s, is made from Caviuna hardwood. It features rounded edges and curved armrests that follow the shape of the piece. The wooden rods elegantly support the seating area, evoking a sense of a living organism, a characteristic typical of Scapinelli’s work in the 1950s. The wood has been carefully refinished, and the original upholstery is in OK condition. We offer complimentary reupholstery with any of our fabrics.
