The Elettra Armchair, designed by the architectural studio B.B.P.R. (Banfi, Belgiojoso, Peressutti, Rogers) in 1953, is a foundational icon of post-war Italian design. Characterized by rigorous simplicity, the Elettra features a slender, black lacquered metal frame supporting a light, suspended seat and backrest. This minimalist framework defined a clean, architectural approach to seating. The Fur Version transforms this elegant mid-century classic into a striking contemporary statement. The contrast between the rigid, intellectual frame and the soft, tactile covering—often executed in shaggy, inviting fur—adds an element of warmth, visual drama, and luxury. Maintaining its timeless structural integrity, the Elettra Armchair in this evocative finish remains a celebrated icon, effortlessly blending historical significance with high-touch sophistication.
