About the Item

A set of six Sillas Mexico "Mexican Chairs" designed by Diego Matthai (born 1942-) in 1971 and had a limited production. The design was inspired by a basic vernacular seating ubiquitously found throughout Mexico. The minimal design stays true with the form of the simple chair but contrast by using a more industrial material, the chromed steel frame. It plays with the concept of tradition versus innovation, transient versus timeless, handmade versus mass production. Each example is signed on the back rail as shown. These chairs come with black seat cushions selected by us for extra comfort.
