Pair of T.H Robsjohn-Gibbings armchairs for Widdicomb

$ 7,700
  • Description
    This stunning pair of armchairs is a refined example of T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings' talent for Widdicomb, a master of an aesthetic that harmoniously blends timeless elegance with modernist simplicity. These chairs embody a vision of understated luxury typical of the 1950s, with clean lines and perfectly balanced proportions that invite a sophisticated sense of relaxation.

    The dark wooden frames, with slightly flared, tapered legs, evoke a neoclassical elegance reinterpreted in a modern key, giving these pieces a distinctive character. It’s as if every angle, every curve of the frame speaks of an era when craftsmanship and attention to detail were paramount. The simplicity of the lines is deceptive, as it hides a careful pursuit of perfect proportions, skillfully merging functionality and beauty.

    The upholstery, newly re-covered in a warm brick-red velvet, breathes new life into the chairs, creating a fascinating play of light and shadow on the soft, velvety surface. This warm, inviting shade draws you in, almost like an embrace, making these armchairs not only a symbol of style but a haven of comfort. Envisioning them in an elegant living room, perhaps by a crackling fireplace or under a vintage lamp, creates an irresistible appeal for those who appreciate design that tells a story. These pieces are not just furniture; they are true works of art, carrying the charm of an era and making it current—able to harmonize with modern decor while preserving their vintage soul.
