A highly rare and striking set, this piece is particularly noteworthy for its complete six-piece configuration, which is difficult to find on the market today in this condition and with such a homogeneous composition.

The frame is made of glossy black lacquered wood, characterized by an elegant interplay of sinuous geometric shapes.

The high, sculptural backrests, composed of shaped elements connected by thin brass-colored metal inserts, are the distinctive feature of the design and give the chairs a sophisticated, almost futuristic look.

The leather-colored seats, with their soft, rounded lines, create a refined contrast with the black frame, further enhancing the exclusive character of the ensemble. 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
