About the Item
Set of 6 Mid-Century Modern Dining Chairs by Silvio Cavatorta, Italy, 1950s
A rare and refined set of six dining chairs designed by Silvio Cavatorta, a celebrated figure of Italian Mid-Century Modern design. Produced in Italy during the 1950s, these chairs are a striking example of elegant craftsmanship and timeless architectural form.
Each chair features a solid walnut frame, showcasing beautiful grain and warm tonal variation. The design is clean and sculptural, with gently tapered legs, subtly curved backrests, and well-proportioned joinery that reflects Cavatorta’s sophisticated aesthetic. The backrest offers both support and a pleasing visual curve, making these chairs as comfortable as they are stylish.
The chairs retain their original woven upholstery, which is in structurally sound condition but displays some signs of wear consistent with age and use. While the patina may appeal to collectors who value originality, we recommend reupholstering for those seeking a refreshed appearance or a customized fabric choice to match a specific interior.
Dimensions:
Height: 86 cm
Depth: 50 cm
Width: 43 cm
Seat Height: 44 cm
This set remains structurally strong and stable, with minor surface wear to the wood as expected from vintage pieces. The integrity of the walnut frames and the quality of craftsmanship make them ideal candidates for light restoration or full reupholstery to meet contemporary needs.
Silvio Cavatorta’s work is increasingly sought-after, and full original sets such as this are rarely available. These chairs would elevate any dining area, blending seamlessly into both modern and classic interiors.
