Carlo de Carli for Sormani, 'PIPA' lounge chair, wood, metal and leather, Italy, circa 1963.

A 'PIPA' lounge chair, designed by the Italian Carlo de Carli in circa 1963. He designed this model as a homage to his Professor Gio Ponti. The armchair consists of a black leather seat and backrest. The curved armrests are made of wood and the top are upholstered with black leather. These slightly point upwards. The black coated legs are slim and form a striking combination with the large seat.
