About the Item
Rare variant of Chair No. 405 crafted for the Municipal House in Prague circa 1905.

Constructed from beech wood, it features a continuous leather-tacked back and a seat with a graceful L-shape, while its legs elegantly terminate in brass sabots. Preserved in its original condition, the chair exhibits visible signs of wear. Structurally sound.

Set of 8 Dialogo Chairs by Afra & Tobia Scarpa for B & B Italia, 1970s
By Afra & Tobia Scarpa, B&B Italia
Located in PRAHA 5, CZ
Designed in the early 1970s by the visionary duo Afra and Tobia Scarpa, the Dialogo chair is a masterclass in quiet complexity. This set of eight exemplifies the pair’s commitment to structural clarity and understated luxury — a dialogue between geometry, material, and human presence.
