Vico Magistretti ‘Carimate’ Dining Chairs with Rush Seating

Vico Magistretti, dining chairs, model ‘Carimate’, lacquered beech, rush, Italy, designed circa 1960

The ‘Carimate’ chair is one of Vico Magistretti’s most famous chairs. Originally designed in red color for the ‘Carimate Golf Club’ in Italy that Magistretti designed, the chair was produced for a long time and with four different manufacturers. Since Magistretti was very confident about the success of this model, he requested a patent for the construction and the joints in 1963. Due to the architectural, open frame the ‘Carimate’ chair has a strong expression. The angular frame has two curved armrests that add a dynamic appeal. Where the frame meets the seat, Magistretti added a distinct detail to the frame which gets a little wider at this point.
