four Plia chairs by Giancarlo Piretti

In 1967, the Plia chair was presented at the Milan Furniture Fair and was the symbol of a new era centered on plastic material. Designer Giancarlo Piretti revolutionized the concept of the folding chair with his study of the "3-disc pivot," considered a stroke of genius. The combination of steel frame and polypropylene made the Plia chair a cult object and represented the realization of "democratic design." Exhibited at the design section of the MoMa in New York, this chair sold millions and allowed Piretti to enter design history, earning him the nickname "Thonet of the 20th century."

*The set is sold with its original wall-mounted chair hanger.
