Stresa lounge chair, white - black
Description
Serax's Stresa lounge chair is a unique piece by artist and blacksmith – and former professional dancer – Antonino Sciortino. The lounge chair draws inspiration from the childhood memories of the designer, of sun-drenched summers spent in the village of Stresa in Northern Italy. The sculptural yet attractively airy appearance of the metallic lounge chair carries references to a 1950s armchair the Sciortinos used to have in their holiday home back in Stresa – a compact chair that offered an ideal spot for both napping, storytelling and serene moments spent together.
The playful combination of straight lines and curved, soft shapes makes the Stresa armchair not only a practical everyday essential but also an interesting and discussion-provoking work of art.

Antonino Sciortino is an Italian artist known for his elaborate metalwork as well as his spectacular career as a dancer and choreographer. A native of Palermo, Italy, Sciortino began practicing molding metal at his brother's blacksmith's workshop when he was no older than eight, and even though the following decades took him in a different direction – dancing – Sciortino returned to the furnace at a more mature age. Sciortino's simple yet sophisticated metal sculptures draw inspiration from his career as a dancer and combine the heavy, rigid material with free-slowing movement in a fascinating way.
