About the Item

A set of Very Rare and out of production 80s chairs designed by Oscar Tusquets Blanca for Aleph-Driade, an historic Italian company in the world of design. Conceived as an outdoor chair, it was important that it should stand up to bad weather and the passing of time. Structurally, it is based on two lateral bands which form an X shape to provide the legs and which support the backrest. The original version was in wickerwork and aluminium, but there is also a variant, like the one we are offering you for sale, in painted steel and grille. Although designed for outdoor use, many owners also opted to use it indoors, for example in a living room, due to its warm informal quality. The set consists of 6 chairs in red painted steel and grille, they are stable and solid but show slight signs of use and age, which can be seen in the photos. They are chairs with an unusual but comfortable and functional design that preserve the pictorial and "artistic" side of this designer and architect who also designed the splendid Toledo metro station in Naples.
