About the Item
This original set of Plia Chairs by Giancarlo Piretti features eight folding chairs with a chrome frame and smoked acrylic seat and back. Designed in 1967 for Castelli, the Plia chair quickly became an icon of Italian postwar design. Its clean folding mechanism and transparent look helped define a new era of lightweight, flexible furniture.
The chairs fold flat in one simple motion, making them ideal for multifunctional spaces. They are light, easy to carry, and stack beautifully when not in use.
This set of Plia Chairs by Giancarlo Piretti from the 1970s still feels modern and practical today. The mix of chrome and translucent plastic fits well in both vintage and contemporary interiors.
These chairs offer a perfect blend of form and function, practical, collectible, and full of character. A great choice for design lovers, event spaces, or flexible dining areas.
A timeless Italian classic ready for daily use or display.
