Item description

Bastiano armchair by Tobia Scarpa for Gavina, 1960. Bearing structure in rosewood. Flying cushions with polyurethane bottom and feather top on covered steel elastic rods. The original leather upholstery has some surface scratches. A simple wooden frame for a "classic armchair" in leather that no longer needed a carpenter or upholsterer. The foot solution brings us back to the great school of Vienna: it will radically influence the subsequent productions of seats and furniture.
