Pair of armchairs characterized by a very solid frame with wooden legs; the backrest is wide and enveloping, and the seat is wide and comfortable. The slightly oval-section legs are tapered downward and are an integral part of the whole design. Very pretty and distinctive is the brass guard at the end of the two front legs. They are still upholstered with their original cotton velvet fabric in a beautiful green. The overall appearance is curvilinear with soft lines, perfect for conveying a feeling of comfort and well-being. The armchairs were created between 1950 and 1954 by Milanese master craftsmen who worked in collaboration with designer Gugliemo Ulrich on his important projects. Guglielmo Ulrich was born in Milan in 1904 to Alberto and Luisa Battaglia. From a noble family of Danish origin, he attended the Brera Academy and, after two years, graduated in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic in 1928. An architect, designer, interior decorator and painter, Ulrich was one of the most interesting multifaceted artists of the last century who undoubtedly found his greatest expression in the world of design between the 1940s and 1970s. What is striking about Ulrich's work is precisely his ability to combine innovation and new identity in Italian design; a unique ability to create a link between tradition and innovation. Seat height: 38 cm.
