Description
Pair of Giuseppe Scapinelli High Back Chairs in Caviuna Wood, Brazil 1950s

This pair of two high back armchairs has the typical Scapinelli style with its curvy lines and soft sensual shapes. The elegant lines of this design are beautifully emphasised in the back with five slender spindles and the refined curvy armrests. The chairs are elevated by diagonal tapered legs supporting the sand coloured upholstered cushions. The chairs are both comfortable with their thick seats as well as aesthetically pleasing.
