Studio Tecnico Cassina model no. 811 armchair 1950s
Immerse yourself in the refined elegance of the Model 811 Lounge Chair, designed in the 1950s by the Studio Tecnico Cassina in Meda, Italy. This rare example perfectly expresses the harmony between Italian rationalist design and timeless comfort.
The structure, crafted in solid wood with geometric clarity and architectural lines, has been preserved through a meticulous conservative restoration, ensuring its authenticity and integrity. The upholstery has been newly re-made in line with the original design, using a high-quality Dralon velvet in a deep lobster (aragosta) shade. This premium fabric adds both durability and a luxurious tactile feel, while faithfully respecting the chair’s historical essence.
With its elongated backrest, ergonomic inclination, and sculptural frame, the Model 811 embodies the constructivist and mid-century modern spirit of Cassina’s technical office in the postwar years. Documented in design archives and prestigious auctions, including Piasa (1957) and the Blouin Art Sales Index, it remains an iconic collectible piece of Italian furniture heritage.
A true statement of sophistication, this lounge chair integrates seamlessly into modern interiors while preserving the narrative of Italian design history. Both elegant and inviting, it offers not only comfort but also a distinguished presence for collectors and connoisseurs.
