Papperzini’s highly appreciated design is here interpreted with taste and elegance, proposing a line of chairs always suitable for any outdoor environment, such as a terrace, garden and patio, but also indoors. John Salterini, an Italian immigrant to New York, formed his own company in 1934 after the dissolution of Salterini & Gallo, of which he was a partner, which produced wrought iron articles.

Salterini managed to offer them some of the most refined outdoor furniture of the time. Throughout his career, Salterini designed and produced a wide range of furniture, from tables and chairs to chaise longues, poufs and benches...
