Paolo Buffa Pair of Lounge Chairs, Italy, circa 1950

Creator: Paolo Buffa
Offered by: Babou New York

Description
A pair of Paolo Buffa lounge chairs, designed in 1950 for the Hotel Bristol, Merano, an Italian resort. The chairs are indicative of Buffa's signature style, modernist and sleek but with a nod toward the elegant and refined lines of the Neoclassic period. The curved and dramatically shaped arms are supported by a wide and comfortable seat, the whole supported on walnut conical shaped legs.
The chairs have been fully restored in our professional studio with down filled cushions, and freshly upholstered in a luxurious cotton/wool in a classic cashmere color. These timeless classics would complement any interior style setting.

Designed by Paolo Buffa, 1950 for the Hotel Bristol, Merano, Italy.
Size: 34 3/4" high x 16 3/4" seat height x 28 1/4" wide x 29" deep.
