Quinta Chairs by Mario Botta for Alias, Italy, 1980s

Designed by Swiss architect Mario Botta for Alias in the 1980s, the Quinta chair is a striking example of postmodern Italian furniture design. Its bold frame is constructed from black lacquered steel with a glossy finish and features sculptural curved armrests in chromed metal. The seat and backrest are made from folded perforated sheet metal, offering both structural integrity and surprising comfort. With its geometric composition and architectural presence, the chair blurs the line between functional object and collectible design. Originally made in Italy and no longer in production, these chairs have become sought-after by collectors and design enthusiasts alike. Each chair is in excellent condition, with pristine lacquered and chromed surfaces, no visible scratches or dents, and the perforated metal seat and backrest fully intact. Priced per piece.
