About the Item
Designed in 1980 by Italian-Argentinian duo Giancarlo Piretti & Emilio Ambasz, exposing modernity and ergonomics - Piretti was already known for his innovative designs, such as the famous Plia for Anonim Castelli
Manufactured in Italy by Openark, briefly in the 1980s, it easily adapts to “space-age” style and offis design
Ergonomics and comfort - movable backrest adjusts to the user's body.
"Space-age" design - plastic and steel are supporting materials for the futuristic designs of the 1980s.
Creator Piretti is a name that set the course for Italian design through his earlier designs collected by MoMA
Dorsal is a chair that combines Italian space-age style with 80s office functionality. Comfortable, stackable, yet designer - a great choice for a mid-century office, studio or dining room. It also has a strong pedigree of designers, headed by Piretti - the man who shaped the classics of Italian design.
