'Periplo' Cognac Leather Chaise Lounge by Tarcisio Colzani for Mobil Girgi, 1970s
The ‘Periplo’ chaise lounge is a sculptural piece designed by Tarcisio Colzani for Mobil Girgi in the 1970s. Crafted from rich walnut, its solid frame features clean, geometric lines and distinctive block legs with rounded edges. Upholstered in supple, high-quality cognac leather, the generously cushioned seat and plush headrest invite relaxation, while its ergonomic design ensures lasting comfort.
Tarcisio Colzani, an Italian self-taught carpenter and designer, began his professional journey in the technical office of a furniture company after leaving the Brera Art School in 1967. This experience provided him with extensive knowledge of materials and manufacturing techniques, which he adeptly applied to his designs. Between 1957 and 1960, Colzani received five awards for research at institutions in Stockholm and Chicago, underscoring his innovative approach to furniture design.
Mobil Girgi, an Italian furniture manufacturer active during the mid-20th century, was renowned for its high-quality craftsmanship and collaborations with various prominent designers.
