Description

These high-back armchairs exemplify the distinctive Scapinelli style, characterized by delicate lines and soft, sensual shapes. Supported by straight, tapered legs, the chairs feature teal suede-upholstered cushions that are thick and comfortable. Acquired from an estate sale in São Paulo, Brazil, these armchairs combine comfort with aesthetic appeal.

What sets this set apart is the tall, slim backrest which, despite its size, contributes to a sleek and elegant appearance. Displayed in our showroom alongside a mid-century modern chest of drawers, this set enhances any space. Ideal for a mid-century modern collection or a modern and eclectic home, these armchairs make a stunning addition.
