The Isadora chair is inspired by the grace of Isadora Duncan, pioneer of contemporary dance. Created by Roberto Lazzeroni, its original design is shaped by the seamless combination of wood and saddle-leather. The Isadora chair has a solid wood structure. Nevertheless, it traces a sinuous and agile profile thanks to the expert work on its thicknesses. The saddle-leather upholstery totally envelops it and almost appears to fly. Skilful tailored stitching and cuts give it the appearance of a light dress. The sensation is airy yet solid and is the result of expert craftsmanship which, by subtraction, reduces the materials to the bare essentials and exalts their pure beauty. The Isadora chair project offers a highly modern interpretation of the forms of the past. Also available in a version with armrests and a Large version, the structure of Isadora is made from solid ash in a Moka or Wengé stain. The upholstery is in clean cut Cuoio Saddle Extra leather, refined with protective dye and wax and underlined by contrast or tone-on-tone stitching.
