Rare Clara Porset occasional chair from Italy circa late 1950’s. This hard to find example won an award at the 1957 Milan Triennale and has an elegantly curved steel frame with original black leather upholstery. The steel frame does have patina as does the upholstery but we love the broken in feel to this chair.
