Pair of lounge chairs by Joe Colombo for Kartell 4801

A pair of "interlocking" lounge chairs by Joe Colombo for Kartell, Italy, manufactured in Mid-Century. Joe Colombo's iconic 4801 armchair was designed in 1963/1964. A modern chair with striking visual appeal by the master of Italian Space Age design. A limited number of wood 4801 chairs were produced in the 1960s, when the technologies did not exists to produce Joe Colombo's design using Kartell's material of choice. The original chair was crafted with a bent pressed plywood seat, back and frame fitted together without any metallic parts or glue, painted in of-the-era hues of white, green, orange and black. The chairs are in very good original condition with minor wear on the edges. Please see images for details.
