AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid and rare pair of lounge chairs model "Capriccio", an icon of Italian design from the 1970s designed by Georg Bighinello - Prieth and produced by Eurosalotto Pedrina.
These chairs stand out for their sculptural, abundant and sinuous line, typical of the Space Age aesthetics of the era. The characteristic gathering and crumpled fabric along the backrest and armrests gives a sense of softness and maximum comfort, creating unique volumes that catch the eye in any environment.
The shell rests on its iconic and original square base molded in rigid gray metallized plastic, bearing the raised factory mark that guarantees authenticity ("Eurosalotto Pedrina - Capriccio - Design Georg Bighinello-Prieth").
• Model: Capriccio
• Designer: Georg Bighinello - Prieth
• Manufacturer: Eurosalotto Pedrina (Padua, Italy)
• Period: 1970s (circa 1970)
• Material: Upholstery in soft velvet (brown/warm tobacco color) and base in technical plastic material
• Style: Space Age, Italian Design

Condition of the item
The chairs are structurally solid and retain their original, enveloping padding. The original warm brown velvet is in excellent vintage condition, with light and normal signs of time that bear witness to their story without undermining their charm. The lower bases feature their original feet and the brand stamping is perfectly legible.
