Condition report
This exquisite pair of ‘Zelda’ lounge chairs, designed by the renowned Italian architect and designer Sergio Asti in 1962, exemplifies the harmonious blend of form and function characteristic of mid-century modern design. Produced by the esteemed Italian manufacturer Poltronova, these chairs are celebrated for their distinctive cubic form and exceptional craftsmanship. The chairs feature a robust plywood frame, elegantly finished with a walnut veneer that showcases the natural beauty of the wood grain. The original black leatherette cushions provide a striking contrast to the warm wooden structure, enhancing the visual appeal of the design. Designed with comfort in mind, the thick seat and back cushions are securely nestled within the frame, while a cylindrical bolster offers additional lumbar support. The frame functions as a supportive cradle, enveloping the plush cushions to create an inviting seating experience.
Over time, the leatherette upholstery has developed a subtle patina, adding to the chairs’ vintage charm. While some color fading is present, the cushions can be reupholstered upon request to suit individual preferences. These ‘Zelda’ lounge chairs are not only a testament to Sergio Asti’s innovative design philosophy but also serve as iconic pieces of Italian furniture history, making them a valuable addition to any discerning collector’s assemblage. The chairs are in good original condition with age related signs of wear.
Kindly note that the chairs are priced and sold in a set of 2.
