Leather and Plywood Dining Chairs in the Style of Mobil Girgi, Set of 4
About the Item
Set of four dining chairs designed by Afra & Tobia Scarpa in the late 60s. The legs are made of ash, and the seat and back made of plywood. It is upholstered with brick-colored leather, and presented in an ergonomic shape found in the late 80's projects of the Venetian spouses.
Afra (1937-2011) & Tobia (1935-) Scarpa both studied at the Venice Institute of Architecture. Tobia first worked for the Italian glass manufacturer Venini. From 1960 on, the couple opened their own design office. Their work includes architecture and everyday items like furniture and clothing. Tobia & Afra designed for numerous major Italian and international companies like Flos, Gavina, B&B Italia, Cassina, Knoll International, and many interior projects for multiple brands worldwide.
