About the Item

Playful and sophisticated, this Memphis-style chair captures the essence of postmodern design with its bold shapes and pastel shades. The backrest features a curved silhouette in a refreshing mint green, enhanced with subtle silver rivet detailing that adds a contemporary edge. The seat, finished in a glossy light grey laminate, offers a sleek and polished surface that contrasts beautifully with the backrest. Four sturdy cylindrical legs, crafted with a natural wood tone, are capped with black rubber accents, giving the piece a distinctive yet grounded presence. Perfect as a statement piece or a functional work of art, this chair embodies the Memphis movement’s ethos: bold, unconventional, and endlessly captivating.
