These seats represent one of the most successful expressions of Italian industrial design of the period, where functionality, structural lightness, and formal research coexist in perfect balance.
The steel structure, slender yet extremely solid and heavy, draws a continuous and fluid profile that defines both the legs and the backrest, generating a dynamic and immediately recognizable line.
The folding system, perfectly integrated into the design, does not compromise the aesthetics but rather becomes an integral part of it, emphasizing the design intelligence of the piece.

Design & Function
The result is a chair that combines rigor and comfort, designed to be practical yet with a strong visual presence, perfect for both contemporary domestic settings and contract or collectible environments.
Available in series, ideal for use around a dining table or as a modular set easily storable thanks to their folding nature.

Materials & Aesthetic
The black leather seat introduces a warmer and more sophisticated material component, creating a refined contrast with the coldness of the lacquered steel.
