Vintage 1970's Cassina Soriana Chairs by Afra & Tobia Scarpa, Set of 2
The now iconic "Soriana" Lounge Chair by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Cassina. was originally released in the 1960s, but the design was not fully recognized until the 1970s. Clearly ahead of its time, the Soriana collection was celebrated for innovative design and comfort.
The chairs are characterized by their distinctive silhouette, featuring soft curves and deep cushioning that balance aesthetics with function. Their design has garnered numerous accolades, including recognition at the prestigious Compasso d'Oro awards of 1970.
Characterized by a low profile that encourages relaxation, the chairs feature a minimal structure made of chromed steel. This framework maintains the tautness of the upholstery, secured by buttons at the seat, allowing the fabric to wrap elegantly where it folds along the sides and back. The T-shaped metal components encase the seat, enclosing a polyurethane fill for added comfort.
These specific chairs are a 1970's edition that have been restored and reupholstered in a subtly mottled caramel-colored leather by the infamous Morentz gallery. They remain in excellent condition.
The "Soriana" Lounge Chairs reflect the enduring legacy of Afra and Tobia Scarpa and their contributions to contemporary furniture design.

"Second purchase from Modern Resale and it was great! Buying has been a great experience. The quality of this leather magazine holder and the 6 BB Italia chairs was excellent. I highly recommend."

"Working with Sarah and Stacia was easy and simple. The chairs were shipped from LA to New York in 2 weeks and were exactly as advertised. I highly recommend Modern Resale for anyone looking for designer furniture at an attractive price!"

“I had been coveting an Antonio Citterio Diesis coffee table for a while so when I saw it listed at Modern Resale, I jumped on it. Even though I do not live in L.A. the transaction couldn’t have been better. The packing was very secure and you could see the care that went into protecting it. I’m so happy with my purchase.”

I’ve been obsessed with the Ethnicraft Slice table ever since I saw it. But no way would I pay $4,400 for a dining table. I discovered that Modern Resale had one for less than half that. I was thrilled and jumped on it. I was worried about buying used, sight unseen. But this is one of the best things I have ever purchased. Top notch and A+.
