About the Item

Plia folding chair by Castelli based on a design by Giancarlo Piretti from the 60s. Here in a rare and early version in transparent yellow. This design classic is still in production today. But only with clear acrylic surfaces. Plias in other colors are now rare and older. The special thing about the design of this folding chair is the single joint around which the folding mechanism rotates. This makes the chair particularly narrow and easy to store when folded. The chair is in very good condition with signs of wear and patina.
