Pair of Cornaro 140 armchairs designed by Carlo Scarpa. Solid hardwood structure (iroko). Polyurethane padding. Upholstery in original chenille velvet. 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 wood structure, which makes this piece very powerful.
