Gaudì chair design Vico Magistretti for Artemide, 1970s.
An absolute icon of Italian modernism, the Gaudí chair is famous for its organic lines and revolutionary monocoque structure, which has earned it exposure in the permanent collections of the most prestigious museums, such as the MoMA in New York.
The material is a fiberglass-reinforced resin, according to Magistretti's concept of "form strength": that is, giving solidity to the object not by increasing the thickness of the plastic, but by expertly curving it.
Under the seat is the hot-stamped mark: the words "Patent Pending" indicate one of the first editions produced.
The chocolate brown color makes the chair perfect in combination with the Demetrio coffee table (cod. 3459).
The chairs are in excellent vintage condition. They show slight superficial signs of time that attest to their originality and experience, but the structure is intact, free of cracks or breaks. One is missing a rubber pad.
