About the Item

Set of eight lightweight Chiavari chairs in beechwood with woven cord seat, Campanino model, Chiavari craftsmanship, 1960s The classic Chiavari lightweight chair, known as the Campanino, embraced modernity in the mid-20th century with refined lines. While preserving the traditional craftsmanship of Chiavari manufacturing, the Campanino chair shed some of its turned decorations, revealing a more essential form. A successful reinterpretation streamlined the backrest and legs, simplifying the design while maintaining its renowned elegance and exceptional lightness. These particular chairs, sturdy and solid, were originally designed for the intensive use typical of public spaces, furnishing the veranda of a restaurant on the Ligurian Riviera. A meticulous restoration has revived the warm tones of the wood and all the aesthetic details of this high-quality chair. The seat has been renewed with a decorative woven pattern in twisted cord of varying colors. In keeping with tradition, the chosen knotting technique has an antique charm and is entirely handcrafted. The interwoven colored cords create a striking texture, while the vibrant tones complement a chair naturally suited to conviviality and hospitality.
