About the Item

This pair of “Arrow” chairs, dating from the 1970s circa, is a striking example of Italian surrealist and super modernist design. Named “Arrow” for the wrought iron arrow that pierces the backrest, they boast a bold sculptural identity. The sturdy wrought iron frame features spiral legs and carved conical wooden details on one of the legs, while the seat and backrest are upholstered in rich purple velvet, adding both luxury and drama. An unusual white fringe detail adorns the left side of each armchair, lending a playful yet unexpected touch. Each chair measures 60 x 50 x 111 cm (23.3 x 19.7 x 43.7 in). Made in Italy, these chairs make perfect statement pieces for contemporary interiors or vintage design collections.
