Enrico Delmonte set of four "Gobbetta" chairs, Chiavari, Italy, 1960s
About the Item
A rare set of four "Gobbetta" chairs, expertly crafted in the early 1940s by the esteemed cabinetmaker Enrico Delmonte.
Fashioned from high-quality ebonised beech wood, these chairs exhibit a delicate balance between lightweight construction and robust durability, accentuated by distinctive and captivating light backrest. Each seat has been meticulously hand-woven with straw in our artisanal atelier, paying homage to the cherished caning tradition of Chiavari.
Remarkably weighing less than 2.60kg per chair, their portability is unmatched, facilitating effortless relocation. Professionally restored, these chairs have undergone meticulous attention to preserve their structural integrity and aesthetic allure. The newly woven seats guarantee both comfort and visual splendour.
Boasting dimensions of 43cm in depth, 41cm in width, and 95cm in height, these chairs epitomise well-proportioned and ergonomic design, rendering them a versatile addition to any lounge or kitchen. Furthermore, the 46cm seat height ensures comfortable seating at standard dining tables.
The Chiavarine design has indelibly influenced the realm of design, inspiring eminent figures such as the renowned Italian architect and designer Gio Ponti. His iconic Leggera chair in the early 1950s and the groundbreaking Superleggera chair in 1958 both bear the unmistakable influence of the Chiavarine's exceptional blend of sturdiness and lightweight craftsmanship.
