Antonio Citterio Scissor Lounge Chairs for Flexform

Available now is this rare pair of Antonio Citterio “Scissor” lounge chairs for Flexform, first introduced in the early 1980s as the designer’s modern riff on the collapsible campaign chair.

Each mirror-polished stainless X-frame is hand-welded in Italy and tensioned by six chromed cylinders that grip a single sling of thick, black saddle leather—an idea borrowed from Milan’s saddle-making tradition that cradles the sitter in a low, ergonomic embrace. The resulting silhouette feels at once weightless and architectural, reflecting light like a blade while anchoring a room with quiet post-modern glamour. Whether flanking a coffee table or standing alone as functional sculpture, they embody Flexform’s hallmark of understated luxury and Citterio’s reputation for timeless precision.

Wear Notes:

Small wear along the edges. No structural damage. Chrome frame is in great shape.
