Ennio Fazioli for Mim Roma Set of Eight Swivel Office Chairs in Leather

About the Item

Ennio Fazioli for Mim Roma, set of eight swivel office chairs, leather, mahogany plywood, Italy, 1960s In the early 1960s, MIM Roma saw a rise in the production of office furniture, particularly desks and chairs, which were developed in multiple variations to meet diverse workplace needs, forming cohesive collections. These chairs exemplify that era’s design approach. The structure is built on a sleek black five-star base, with legs extending outward and subtly tapering downward, each fitted with small feet for added stability. A central column supports the seat, enabling smooth swiveling, while a side lever allows for height adjustment. The seat and backrest are upholstered in button-tufted cognac leather, framed by elegantly curved mahogany plywood, seamlessly blending craftsmanship with functionality. MIM Roma (Mobili Italiani Moderni) was founded in 1958 by Ennio Fazioli, who was at that time just 28 years old. When the first showroom opened, the display was designed by Ico Parisi who worked for the manufacturer until 1960. At the time that MIM was founded, spirits were high: scientific and technological discoveries would catalyze growth and modernity. Fazioli believed that everybody deserved beautiful, modern design. MIM moved towards a certain lightness and rationalization that borrowed from Nordic and American aesthetics, yet with a true Italian elegance. The resulting collection from MIM is therefore a combination of 'refined linearity with a sober opulence: a typically Italian matching of simplicity with the exceptional'. Kindly note that the chairs are in good, used condition with signs of age and use. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
