Pair of Powder Blue Mohair Velvet Swiveling "Nautilus" Chairs by Vladimir Kagan

This pair of swiveling "Nautilus" chairs by Vladimir Kagan, crafted in America circa 1970, is a quintessential example of Kagan’s visionary design. Renowned for his sculptural approach and ability to marry comfort with artistry, Kagan’s work remains highly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts alike.

These chairs feature a swivel base and a dynamic, asymmetrical silhouette reminiscent of a nautilus shell. The fluid, organic curves create an inviting yet eye-catching design that is both timeless and modern. Upholstered in a luxurious powder blue mohair velvet, the fabric enhances the design’s elegance while offering a soft, tactile surface.

Perfect for injecting personality into a living room, den, or lounge space, these chairs exemplify Kagan’s ability to design furniture that feels as much like art as it does functional seating. Whether as standout statement pieces or complementing other mid-century designs, they deliver both style and sophistication. With the original labels on the undersurface denoting the maker.
