Tearsheet
Set of eight dining chairs, ash, Italy, 1970s

This set of dining chairs, crafted in solid ash during 1970s Italy, is a clear expression of a particular moment in post-war European design. Its geometry is strict, almost austere, but it carries a warm and tactile materiality that softens its rationalist structure. The frame is composed of straight, squared components with legs and stretchers that meet with clean, right-angled joints. What immediately distinguishes the piece is the seat: a lattice grid, both functional and expressive. There's something almost Brutalist in this openness, though scaled to the intimacy of domestic space. The backrest contrasts this with a subtle curve: gentle, ergonomic, and inviting. This and the softly finished edges of the chair break from rectilinearity.

Kindly note that the chairs are in good, used condition with some signs of age and use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
