Nino Zoncada armchair for ISA Bergamo, sage green fabric and brass, Italy, 1952.

Designed in 1952 for ISA Bergamo, this armchair captures Nino Zoncada at his most effortless—refined, intelligent, and quietly confident.
The tall, sculpted backrest and softly contoured arms define a silhouette that feels both protective and light: architectural, yet deeply inviting. Nothing is overstated. Every curve serves a purpose, every line holds tension. The brass legs lift the form with a subtle, almost graphic gesture, adding elegance without interrupting the visual flow.
This armchair belongs to the moment when Zoncada was contributing to the reshaping of Italian domestic space—less formality, more ease; less monument, more atmosphere. It reflects his early 1950s approach to seating, where comfort becomes a matter of proportion and luxury is expressed through restraint rather than display.
Timeless without seeking to be iconic, this armchair embodies Nino Zoncada's design language at its most natural: calm, balanced, and unmistakably modern—still perfectly at home in contemporary interiors more than seventy years later.

The set can be split. The armchairs can be sold singularly.
