These sculptural chairs embody the bold sophistication of Italian postmodern design and exemplify Cattelan’s flair for architectural form and refined materiality. Each chair features a tall, ergonomically contoured backrest that flows seamlessly into the rear legs, creating a dramatic vertical silhouette. Upholstered in vibrant red leather, the chairs are both visually arresting and comfortable, with subtly curved seats that invite extended dining or conversation. The forward legs and seat underside are finished in matching leather, underscoring the chair’s unified, monolithic aesthetic. This model is distinguished by its minimalist yet expressive design — a hallmark of Cattelan’s early work. The 'Alice' chair balances sculptural boldness with functional elegance, making it equally suited to dining rooms, studio spaces, or as statement accent chairs. Dimensions: Height: 106 cm (41.7 in.) Seat height: 48 cm (18.9 in.) Width: 45 cm (17.7 in.) Depth: 44 cm (17.3 in.) Condition: Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of wear consistent with age and use, including light surface scuffing along the legs and edges. Leather remains supple and vibrant with no significant damage. These rare chairs are increasingly sought after by collectors and design enthusiasts alike for their distinctive form and iconic 1980s Italian character. A refined and timeless addition to any modern or contemporary interior. Origin: Italy Design Period: 1980s Designer: Giorgio Cattelan This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
