the iva chairs have a bold and architectural silhouette, defined by their thick square wooden seats, softly rounded edges and diagonally placed back legs that visually continue into the backrest. The rounded legs and gently curved back rail soften the construction, giving the set a beautiful balance between graphic structure and organic warmth. The visible joinery, rounded profiles and natural grain give these chairs a sculptural, quietly brutalist character while remaining refined and functional.
the iva chair was designed in 1972 by roberto pamio and renato toso for stilwood, an italian manufacturer known for expressive modern wooden furniture. Documented examples describe the model as made in ash wood, with a strong architectural frame and dynamic angled construction. The design sits beautifully within the italian 1970s movement, where functional furniture often carried a more sculptural, experimental presence.
