About the Item
Set of 4 Vintage Giancarlo Piretti "Plia" Folding Chairs for Anonima Castelli, Italy, 1970s
A striking set of four original "Plia" folding chairs designed by Giancarlo Piretti for Anonima Castelli in the 1970s. These iconic chairs embody the sleek, space-saving elegance of mid-century Italian design. Featuring translucent smoked (bronze) lucite seats and backs paired with polished chrome frames, the Plia chair was a revolutionary design at the time—both for its aesthetic appeal and innovative triple-fold mechanism.
Lightweight yet sturdy, the chairs fold flat for easy storage and are perfect for both everyday use and occasional entertaining. The sculptural lines and minimalist silhouette make them an excellent fit for a modernist interior, especially in smaller urban spaces or as accent pieces in contemporary settings.
