About the Item

Vintage pair of handsome lounge chairs produced by G. Maletti. These chairs are made in the style of the Onda chair by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti Italia. They are in wonderful vintage condition. The chrome has minor scratching as you would expect with age. The upholstery is good on the surface but there are some flaws under the head pad flaps, some wear to the arm covering, and the upholstery is mismatched. The result is new upholstery may be preferred but is not required. We believe these to be circa 1970s as are the originals. We have priced these chairs as a pair. These chairs are fantastic! They are done in the style of the Onda chair which was designed by Giovanni Offredi for Saporiti Italia in the 1970s. However, these have chrome arms and are labeled on the bottom G. Maletti. G. Maletti is a high quality and innovative fixtures furniture company based in Italy providing furniture to hairdresser and beauty salons across the world since 1936. After extensive online research I have not been able to tie Giovanni Offredi to G. Maletti; however, Philippe Starck did design fixtures furniture for Maletti, so it is not out of the question that these chairs are the product of a modification of the Onda chair by Giovanni Offredi himself. Whether or not they are, they are fabulous! Comprised of a chrome flat steel bar cantilevered frame with Naugahyde upholstery. One chair is all gray the other is gray and burgundy. We have priced them as a pair. You need to make them yours! Chair: ? Height – 31.5 inches ? Width – 26 inches ? Depth – 29 inches ? Seat height – 17 inches ? Arm height – 23.5 inches ? Inside seat width – 23 inches ? Inside seat depth – 18 inches ? Inside back height – 18 inches ? Weight – 45.6 pounds each Crated size 2 chairs: ? Height – 53 inches ? Width – 32 inches ?

The Metal Office Furniture Company's first products included fireproof metal safes and four-drawer filing cabinets which Wege invented and manufactured for the Macey Company. In 1914, the company received its first product patent for "The Victor," a fireproof steel wastebasket. The Victor gained popularity due to its light weight achieved through a patented process of bending flat steel at right angles to create boxes, and its ability to prevent fires at a time when smoking was common indoors, particularly in the workplace. In 1915, the company began manufacturing and distributing steel desks and in 1937, the company collaborated with Frank Lloyd Wright on office furniture. The partnership lasted two years and resulted in some of the first modern workstations. The company officially changed its name to Steelcase, Inc. in 1954 and became known as the leader of the furniture industry in the late 1960s due to the volume of its sales and in 1973, the company debuted the Series 9000 furniture line. Steelcase merged three of its subsidiaries, Brayton International, Metro Furniture...
