Pair of ‘Orsola’ Lounge Chairs by Gastone Rinaldi for Tacchini, Italy, c.1970s

A striking pair of ‘Orsola’ lounge chairs designed by Gastone Rinaldi for Tacchini in the 1970s, exemplifying the bold sculptural language of Italian post-modern seating.
Upholstered in tan leather, the chairs are defined by their oversized cylindrical forms which create a generous seat and integrated backrest. The soft, padded volumes appear to float above a minimal tubular chrome frame, giving the design both visual lightness and strong architectural presence.
Rinaldi’s design focuses on comfort and form, producing a lounge chair that is both highly expressive and exceptionally inviting. The sculptural silhouette makes these chairs a standout statement piece while still maintaining the relaxed proportions typical of Italian lounge seating from the period.

These chairs remain in completely original condition, retaining their original leather upholstery and chrome frames. The leather shows visible patina, surface wear and scratches consistent with age and use, adding to the authentic character of the pieces.

A distinctive example of 1970s Italian design, ideal for both residential and collectible interiors.
