legno di abete e compensato dipinti all'anilina

This pair of chairs was part of a set of furniture designed by architect Marcello Piacentini for the home of art critic Margherita Sarfatti's daughter, Fiammetta, on the occasion of her marriage to Count Livio Gaetani. This rare creation of private furniture by the famous architect of the regime reveals, in its rigorous, simplified and undecorated lines, an inspiration close to the déco taste and design solutions of Futurist furniture. Two bright red chairs made of fir wood and plywood painted with aniline, a chemical compound used in the preparation of numerous dyes.
