Carlo Bartoli for Arflex 'Bicia' Lounge Chair in Fiberglass
Carlo Bartoli for Arflex, 'Bicia' lounge chair, fiberglass, fabric, Italy, 1969
A white fiberglass-framed lounge chair designed by Carlo Bartoli for Arflex in 1969. The flowing lines of the fiberglass back emphasize the elegance of the design, imparting a luxurious appearance. The fabric seating is adorned with beautifully executed diagonal stitching that gracefully extends over the back and armrests, adding a touch of sophistication and detail to these exquisite chairs.
Originally, the 'Bicia' chair was made for the interior of a theater-cabaret in Florence and eventually placed in regular production by Arflex. Its design can be compared with the 1967 'Gaia' chair. However, the padding in the 'Bicia' chair forms an integral part of the drawing, applied with a perimeter fastening system devised by Carlo Bartoli, whereas it was optional for the 'Gaia' chair.
