Description
An icon of 1960s design, the "560 Mushroom" lounge chair was created in 1963 by Pierre Paulin for Artifort. With its rounded, enveloping silhouette, it offers sculptural presence and exceptional comfort, making it a standout piece in any setting.

The structure is formed from bent steel tubing, reinforced with webbing and high-density foam for a supple yet supportive seat. This edition is upholstered in a jacquard fabric that combines chenille and bouclé yarns, producing a tactile surface with alternating textures. The bold striped pattern in warm brown and cream tones enhances its dynamic, eye-catching appeal.
