An icon of Italian design, the Alky armchair was created by Giancarlo Piretti for Anonima Castelli. A perfect blend of aesthetics and functionality, it represents one of the greatest examples of modular design from the 1970s.
Its sculptural and enveloping shape combines comfort and minimalism: the internal die-cast aluminum frame is padded and upholstered in fabric, creating a soft and welcoming seat. Thanks to a connecting system, the Alky armchairs can be used individually or combined to create modular sofas.
The red fabric upholstery enhances the curved, flowing lines, while the metal base adds a touch of contemporary elegance. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
