Sale price£2,376.02

Vico Magistretti for Cassina, ‘Carimate’ lounge chair, lacquered beech, Larsen fabric, Italy, 1966

The ‘Carimate’ lounge chair is one of Vico Magistretti’s most famous chairs. Originally, the chair had a red color and was designed for the ‘Carimate Golf Club’, a clubhouse that Magistretti designed with Guido Veneziani. The chair was in production for a long time and by four different manufacturers. Since Magistretti was very confident about the success of this model, he requested a patent for the construction and the joints in 1963. Due to the architectural, open frame the ‘Carimate’ chair has a strong expression. The angular frame has two curved armrests that add a dynamic appeal. Where the frame meets the seat, Magistretti added a distinct detail to the frame which gets a little wider at this point.

Please note that this chair is newly upholstered in a brown fabric by Larsen in our atelier.
