« Amanta » Lounge Chair

$0.00 CAD

A grand and generously proportioned lounge chair designed for ultimate comfort. The Amanta lounge chairs, or modular sofa, were designed in 1966 by renowned architect Mario Bellini. These iconic pieces are the perfect addition to a spacious interior, offering both style and versatility.

This particular chair retains its original brown fabric and features a white fiberglass frame that has developed some very light, hardly noticeable yellowing over time. Highly sought after in its era, the Amanta was so popular that it had a waitlist of eager buyers. Designed as a modular piece, it can be used individually as a lounge chair or combined to form a small sofa. This flexibility is made possible by the strategically placed vertical slit in the backrest.

The chair retains its original labels, found beneath the cushions and on the underside of the fiberglass base, further attesting to its authenticity.
