Description
VICO MAGISRETTI LOUNGE CHAIRS CARIMATE FOR CASSINA
Vico Magistretti for Cassina, pair of the Carimate lounge chairs, in a rare white lacquered beech wood with new warm tone cream velvet, Italy, designed circa 1960 The Carimate lounge chair is one of Vico Magistretti’s most famous chairs. Originally, the chair was designed in red and was designed for the ‘Carimate Golf Club’, a clubhouse that Magistretti designed with Guido Veneziani. The chair was in production for a long time and by four different manufacturers. Since Magistretti was very confident about the success of this model, he requested a patent for the construction and the joints in 1963. Due to the architectural, open frame the ‘Carimate’ chair has a strong expression. The angular frame has two curved armrests that add a dynamic appeal. Where the frame meets the seat, Magistretti added a distinct detail to the frame which gets a little wider at this point. 26.75” d x 28.25” w x 26” h seat height 13.75” $8000 PAIR

Message from Seller:

Pavilion is the collective vision of Deborah Colman and Neil Kraus, both graduates of the master of fine arts program at the Art Institute of Chicago. From a longstanding interest in art and design, frequent buying trips to France and Italy have influenced the direction of the gallery to offer items that are not easily sourced in Chicago and United States. Postwar design has been the focus for 18 yrs and we also look forward to new design that crosses boundaries and dialogues as well to the past
