Description
An Italian postmodern P40 Armchair attributed to Giancarlo Vegni and Gianfranco Gualtierotti for Fasem, 1980s.
This red and black Bauhaus-style postmodern accent chair features a slender metal frame and a black rubber seat, back, and armrest. The silhouette of this chair closely imitates Hans Wegner's iconic Round Chair, aka The Chair, which debuted in 1949.
Four uniform legs extend seamlessly upwards to support the arm and backrests. These bright red, toothpick-shaped legs taper slightly towards the top and bottom. The black industrial rubber seating has a fine grid pattern and texture that provides a subtle sheen.
