Italian Mid Century Modern “Korium” Leather Armchairs by Tito Agnoli for Matteo Grassi

Sculptural Italian Leather Armchairs, 1970s–1980s

The “Korium” armchair, designed by Tito Agnoli for Matteo Grassi, is one of the most refined expressions of Italian mid-century modern design. Produced in the late 1970s and 1980s, the chair is celebrated for its full leather construction, showcasing both structural ingenuity and minimalist elegance.

Sophisticated design and timeless comfort

Crafted entirely from high-quality saddle leather, the Korium armchair combines sculptural lines with exceptional comfort. Its integrated armrests, gently curved backrest, and enveloping seat create a form that is both architectural and ergonomic. Over time, the leather develops a rich patina, giving each piece a unique character and enhancing its vintage appeal.

Italian craftsmanship and collectible appeal

Matteo Grassi’s production standards were synonymous with luxury leatherworking, and Agnoli’s design exemplifies this tradition. The Korium series remains highly sought after among collectors and design enthusiasts for its balance of durability, comfort, and sculptural elegance. Perfect as a standalone accent chair or as part of a set, it adds a bold yet refined statement to any interior.
