Set of 4 Medea Dining Chairs by Vitorio Nobili for Fratelli Tagliabue, 1955

About the Item

Set of 4 Fully Restored Medea dining chairs by Vitorio Nobili for Fratelli Tagliabue, Italy, 1955 We all know them, it's just a very nice set of chairs. Rounded forms and a natural appearance together with a good balance in the materials, make this one of design icons of the midcentury Italian Modern period. An elegant chair and a piece of art really. Fratelli Tagliabue was one of the first once working with bended multiplex, using steam and a mold to create the perfect curves. Quite innovative for that period. Brings back memories of the old Riva boats in front off the coast of Capri, Italy.
