Pair: A Space Age Icon Curated by Giuseppe and Sunitha for Dream Atelier Co., we are pleased to present this original pair of "Tortuga" armchairs, an iconic example of 1970s Italian Space Age design. Produced by Beka Italia, this rare edition features a striking white lacquered wood frame with a bold, geometric silhouette that perfectly captures the futuristic optimism of the era.
Condition & Restoration Potential These chairs come directly from our historic Star Vault studio in Salento. They are in original vintage condition and are offered as a restoration project.
Frame: The white lacquered wood structures are solid but show authentic signs of their 50-year history, including some chips and scuffs to the finish.air condition - heavily used & with possibly minor parts missing. All the brass screws are intact.
Upholstery: The black faux leather features classic button-tufting; however, there is visible wear, including a tear on one seat.
The Vision We have chosen to list these in their "found" state to allow the buyer to customize them. Whether you choose to preserve the original black contrast or reupholster them in a contemporary fabric like white bouclé, these chairs are sculptural masterpieces ready for a second life in a modern interior.
