About the Item
Set of 4 Red Leather ‘Alice’ High Back Dining Chairs by Giorgio Cattelan, Italy, 1980s
A striking set of four ‘Alice’ dining chairs designed by Giorgio Cattelan, produced in Italy during the 1980s. These sculptural chairs embody the bold sophistication of Italian postmodern design and exemplify Cattelan’s flair for architectural form and refined materiality.
Each chair features a tall, ergonomically contoured backrest that flows seamlessly into the rear legs, creating a dramatic vertical silhouette. Upholstered in vibrant red leather, the chairs are both visually arresting and comfortable, with subtly curved seats that invite extended dining or conversation. The forward legs and seat underside are finished in matching leather, underscoring the chair’s unified, monolithic aesthetic.
This model is distinguished by its minimalist yet expressive design — a hallmark of Cattelan’s early work. The 'Alice' chair balances sculptural boldness with functional elegance, making it equally suited to dining rooms, studio spaces, or as statement accent chairs.
