Italian Blue Velvet Lounge Chair with Ottoman in the Manner of Paolo Buffa, 1950s

$5,800.00

An Italian armchair from the 1950s, paired with its original ottoman and upholstered in a rich ink-blue velvet with a low pile and subtle sheen. The curved wooden armrests, defined by their distinctive crisscross pattern, extend in a fluid sweep, mirrored by the gentle taper of the legs beneath both chair and ottoman.

Together, the set forms a graceful silhouette—its fluid, harmonious lines echoing the timeless designs of Italian architect and furniture designer Paolo Buffa.
