4 Chairs by Gigi Radice, 1956

Magnificent example of 1950s Italian design by Gigi Radice. They are distinguished by their elegant and fluid silhouette, typical of the refined modernist style of the time. Frame: Black-stained plywood, both slender and responsive, with precision-crafted cabinetry. Their curved backrest forms a continuous ribbon that unfolds in an organic line, subtly following the curve of the back. This sculptural detail is Radice's signature, combining comfort and sophistication. Boucle fabric creates a soft contrast with the dark frame. Legs: Slender and slightly tapered, giving an impression of lightness and balance. Style: A harmonious blend of Italian modernism and artisanal elegance, reminiscent of the designs of Minotti, with whom Radice collaborated in the 1950s and 1960s.
