Folded chair by Giancarlo Piretti for Anonima Castelli, 1970

The so-called "Plia" chair in smoked polypropylene and steel by designer Giancarlo Piretti for Castelli. This chair is an iconic model of 1970s design and is featured in the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Since its presentation at the Milan Furniture Fair in 1967, it has become a cult object, appearing in the MoMA's Radical Furniture exhibition as an example of "democratic design." The Plia combines a steel frame with a transparent polypropylene seat and back, making it lightweight both in use and aesthetically pleasing. The chair is in very good condition, both the chrome and the plexiglass, no cracks, some scratches. The protective feet pads are present. The chair is signed.
