Vintage armchair model 415/1401 in iron and bakelite, 1954

This model. Model 415/1401 is introduced in 1954 and shown for the first time at the 10th Milan Triennale where it was awarded a gold medal. It is a chair with an unprecedented sleek design in which the function largely determines the form. Its beautiful iron frame and bakelite armrests immediately catch the eye, the cushions filled with foam rubber were a novelty for that time. The model remains in production and popular with the public for many years, in 2023 the design still looks current and modern, which has rightly earned the chair the title of Design Icon. This copy. This copy comes from the first owners who already brought the chair into their home in the 1950s as a hypermodern piece of furniture. It was used for many years until the chair was ready for a complete restoration in 2022. At that time we took over this classic and completely restored it, the upholstery was completely renewed with Richwool from Keymer in color no. 18, a beautiful ocher yellow fabric with orange tones. The foam rubber has also been replaced by the very best material on the market, resulting in a seating comfort equal to or even better than the original. Reference : 291118
