Pair of Cornaro 140 armchairs designed by Carlo Scarpa.

Ash wood structure, original chenille velvet upholstery. Polyurethane padding. The one-unit side and back cushion is fastened to the frame corners.

At the beginning of the ’70s Cornaro was born as an example of the Ultrarazionale style: a sofa with a solid hardwood structure, which makes this piece very powerful.
