AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sculptural wicker lounge chair – Italian design – circa the 1970s
A distinctive, handwoven rattan lounge chair with a bold sculptural form and a notably comfortable seat. The design shows clear hallmarks of Italian design from the seventies, where craftsmanship, organic lines, and functionality come together.
The flowing lines, deep seat, and refined weaving technique clearly place this chair in the tradition of Italian designer furniture, where natural materials are used in an artistic way. Not mass-produced, but a handmade object with character and uniqueness.
