Mid century Bauhaus LC1 Style Sling Armchair, Black Pony Hair Hide & Chrome Frame, Italian Mid-Century Modern Lounge Chair, 1980 Italy

Vintage LC1-Style Armchair – Black Pony Hair Hide & Polished Chrome, Italy, 1980s

A striking interpretation of one of the most iconic designs in modern furniture history, this vintage LC1-style armchair combines architectural minimalism with luxurious natural materials. Featuring a polished tubular chrome frame and distinctive black pony hair hide upholstery, this exceptional piece brings sculptural elegance and sophisticated character to any interior.

Inspired by the celebrated LC1 sling chair designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand, the chair reflects the principles of modernist furniture design: clean geometric lines, functional construction, and an honest expression of materials.

The beautifully proportioned chrome frame creates a light, almost architectural silhouette, while the suspended pony hair hide seat and backrest introduce rich texture and a striking organic contrast. The matching armrests, finished in black, complete the chair’s cohesive and refined appearance.
