A cool and rare pair of bulky lounge chairs designed by Guido Rosati and manufactured by Uvet in Italy during the 1970s. These exceptional chairs are a standout example of the era’s focus on bold, comfortable design. Their foam-filled structure provides an unparalleled level of comfort, making it hard to leave once seated. The wrinkled leather upholstery adds depth and dimension, elevating the chairs with a sophisticated, textured aesthetic. Over time, the leather has developed a stunning patina, with natural discoloration from use that gives each chair a unique, one-of-a-kind character.
In good original condition, these chairs showcase their age gracefully, with no holes or tears in the leather, which remains strong and supple. The patina further enhances their charm, adding a layer of vintage appeal that only time can provide. This set of two chairs is priced together, making them a rare and special find for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.
The 1970s was a golden era for oversized, luxurious leather chairs, with iconic designers like Mario Bellini, Joe Colombo, Jonathan de Pas, and Mario Marenco setting the standard. Guido Rosati’s design follows this influential trend while incorporating his own touch of finesse. Unlike mass-produced pieces, these chairs were manufactured in smaller quantities, making them harder to find today and adding to their uniqueness and value.
Whether as statement pieces or functional seating, these chairs embody the perfect blend of comfort, artistry, and historical significance, making them a coveted addition to any interior.
