Le Mura armchair designed by Mario Bellini for Cassina, 1970s

Iconic armchair model le mura designed by mario bellini in 1972 and produced by the italian company cassina. This piece of furniture still has its original mohair upholstery which has become quite rare. The fabric is very soft and has a neutral shade with a subtle pinstripe. The metal details are also still present. He seat is in good vintage condition. It has a subtle patina due to its age with notable signs of wear being a stain on the side and a little damage to the bottom (see photos). None of these are noticeable or disturbing.

He has won numerous prestigious (architectural) awards, including the medaglia d'oro, awarded by the president of the italian republic. His work can be found in the collections of major art museums. Moma in new york, which dedicated a personal exhibition to him, has 25 of his works in its permanent design collection.
