Vladimir Kagan Bilbao Swivel Slipper Chairs in Ivory Bouclé

Creator: Vladimir Kagan
Offered by: Interior Motives

Description
A Post Modern pair of Vladimir Kagan Bilbao swivel chairs freshly reupholstered in soft ivory bouclé circa 1995. Enamored with Bilbao, Spain, the Bilbao chair is a manifestation of Vladimir Kagan's impressions from his time spent on holiday. He was especially inspired by the Guggenheim Museum there (see photo) and mimicked those inspiring and powerful angles and curves into the Bilbao chair. Asymmetrical in every way. Angular sloped backs anchor the chair and swivel atop an upholstered circular disk base. Sexy curved wide seats calm the angles and help nestle you into that modern power position. High Art vibe. Ivory bouclé has a soft lovely texture and works in both warm and cool climates. Its texture lends well to ventilation.

Photographed along with an Adrian Pearsall Mid-Century Modern walnut side table, also currently available in our shop.

Documented in Period Publications & in Vladimir Kagan: A Lifetime of Avant-Garde Design book (see last photo)
