In the manner of Melchiorre Bega, armchair, cherry, velvet fabric, Italy, 1950s

This elegant piece of furniture is made in Italy in the 1950s. The stylistic elements and overall design distinctly showcase the refined craftsmanship and aesthetic of esteemed Italian designers, particularly reminiscent of the work of Melchiorre Bega. Crafted from cherry wood, the meticulously sculpted and faceted front legs are the defining elements of the piece. The armrests of this chair exhibit a sculpted and smooth form, gently extending forward in a graceful, organic curve. The armrests' surface is subtly concave with a gentle taper at the front to achieve a refined yet functional profile. The backrest exhibits a subtly flared trapezoidal shape, reinforcing the chair's sculptural quality while maintaining a clean, geometric silhouette. The burnt orange velvet fabric complements the warm-toned wood in a harmonious way. The deliberate shaping imbues the piece with a poised, sculptural quality, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship of Italian design in the 1950s.

Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use, including wear marks on the fabric. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
