About the Item
This set comes with the PAIR of elegnant chairs in the style of Franco Albini. These are from the 1960s, Italy. These are very comfortable and stylish. They are in good shape throughout. They are stunning and works of usable art!
**We also have the matching Margherita Chair in a separate listing.
Designer Franco Albini is well known for his "Margherita chair" as this is one of the most notable pieces of furniture created by the Lombard architect and designer in the 1950s. He partnered with Franca Helg for various projects in years. Albini’s inspiration in creating the chair is to suspend things and people in the air. Since it is a wooden, rattan and reed chair, a garden is the perfect setting for it. Just after a year of its creation, Margherita chair won first place at the 9th Milan Triennale. Moreover, MoMA in New York City, the Museum of Art in Philadelphia, and the Triennale Design Museum in Milan showcased this beautiful and stunning wooden chair.
Albini’s furniture mostly features a traditional Italian craftsmanship practice with minimal concepts of design. He is famous for using artisanal materials such as woven cane for most seminal works, such as the Margherita and Gala chairs. Moreover, he used a modern aesthetic to the design and construction of his products, which is evident especially to the Margherita chair. With the combination of Albini’s pure talent and training under the apprenticeship of famed Italian furniture designer Gio Ponti, Albini slowly grew as an artist. He carefully developed objects and other designs with usability and style.
This fun and aesthetically appealing design is perfect for a modern, bohemian, eclectic, or folk style home.
