A bold architectural presence characterises this pair of vintage chairs, likely dating to the late 1960s or early 1970s. Sculptural and angular, they reflect the experimental energy of an era where industrial materials and radical form began to influence interior design.

Design
The chairs combine brushed stainless steel with vivid red leather in a geometric construction. Built on sharply angled triangular bases, the design elevates the seat into a dramatic forward-leaning posture, reminiscent of Brutalist architecture and early Space Age aesthetics. The seat itself forms an inverted truncated pyramid; an unexpected shape that cradles the body in a surprisingly ergonomic embrace.

This kind of sculptural formalism aligns with a period in which design became more expressive, moving away from the soft organic forms of the early modernists toward a harder-edged, machine-informed visual language. Though unmarked, these pieces may have originated as a custom commission or a limited production run; possibly for a public or commercial interior. Their composition and material palette suggest affinities with Italian experimental design from the same period, where designers pushed the boundaries between furniture and art.

Condition
The chairs are authentic and have some wear on the metal frames. Both chairs retain their original red leather, which shows surface wear, creasing and minor abrasions consistent with age and use. Re-upholstery options are available upon request.
