GIOVANNI OFFREDI (Milan, 1927- 2007). Set of four rare vintage folding chairs, 1970s. In solid wood with an ingenious folding system using steel cables. Very comfortable with its original upholstery. Measurements: 85 x 60 x 48 cm. Set of 4 chairs with solid wood structure and brown upholstery that combines formal economy and elegance in its design. Straight, pure and robust lines combine with clean, geometric and simple shapes. The scissor legs are folded by steel cables for easy storage. Offredi was a leading Italian furniture and product designer of the second half of the 20th century. Unlike most other Italian furniture designers of his time, Giovanni Offredi was not an architect nor did he begin designing early in his professional career. Giovanni Offredi's earliest known furniture design works consist of exemplary furniture made specifically for some of Milan's wealthy families. In the late 1960s, Giovanni Offredi met Sergio Saporiti, owner of the Italian design store and furniture manufacturer Saporiti, and in 1970, Offredi formalized a collaboration with the furniture manufacturer, which was to be long and fruitful resulting in numerous highly precise, distinctly modern and innovative furniture designs that went on to considerable commercial success.
